Thinner lithium sulfur batteries may be closer thanks to a foamed, protein-based binder that forms microchannels inside the ...

It's difficult to form a protective coating that prolongs battery life at the battery's cathode, but there may be a low-cost ...

Engineers developed a cathode material for lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries that is healable and highly conductive, overcoming longstanding challenges of traditional sulfur cathodes. The advance holds ...

The new cathode material is a crystal composed of sulfur and iodine. The cathode material has a low melting point of 65 Celsius, enabling self-healing of damaged interfaces. A test battery constructed ...

Due to our ever-increasing reliance on electronics, researchers are always on the lookout for battery materials with more desirable qualities. Common battery materials, like lithium, can be prone to ...

Chinese team says their process can recover most of the lithium without the need for harsh and polluting chemicals Chinese ...

Demand is booming for batteries that are faster, thinner and cheaper. We want electric cars and bikes that travel further, ...
