A team partially replaced lithium in a lithium antimonide compound with the metal scandium. This creates specific gaps, so-called vacancies, in the crystal lattice of the conductor material. These ...

New research reveals that higher active site density isn't always better for aqueous zinc-ion batteries. Learn how optimized ...

Lithium-ion batteries are notoriously inflexible, but a new study created one using hydrogels that can survive a surprising amount of punishment. According to researchers at UC Berkeley ...

Researchers at TUM and TUMint.Energy Research have taken a significant step towards improving solid-state batteries. They ...

In a new study, UC Santa Barbara researchers test safer, more efficient alternatives to traditional lithium-ion batteries.

The TSA has banned lithium-ion batteries from checked baggage due to fire risk. These batteries are still permitted in carry-on luggage. The REAL ID requirement, effective May 7, has seen smooth ...

Key sectors include electric vehicles and renewable energy with predominant technologies being lithium-ion batteries. Asia ...

Feb. 22, 2021 — Lithium-sulfur batteries, given their light weight and theoretical high capacities, are a promising alternative to conventional lithium-ion batteries for large-scale energy ...

The TSA recently tightened rules on checked bags to prohibit laptops, rechargeable batteries and power banks. Next time you hit an American airport, make sure there are no lithium-ion batteries in ...
