Researchers have developed a new hydrogel electrolyte that, combined with a Prussian blue cathode, enhances sodium-zinc ...

With simple molecular tweaking, researchers have converted a common chemical waste product, triphenylphosphine oxide (TPPO), ...

The research team expanded the aqueous electrolyte used up until now to an organic electrolyte to increase the output of liquid thermoelectric converter (LTE), which converts temperature ...

Electric devices and vehicles offer a sustainable and economical alternative to fuel-driven machines. However, concerns about ...

Researchers develop a non-flammable quasi-solid-state lithium-ion battery, combining liquid and solid electrolytes for ...

The key to this development lies in a single constituent material of batteries called “electrolytes.” While today’s Li-ion batteries employ organic liquid electrolytes, we are using solid electrolytes ...

Notably, research on high-performance solid electrolytes has primarily focused on inorganic and organic solid electrolytes.

2024, DOI: 10.1021/acsaem.4c02595). Lithium-ion batteries currently depend on liquid electrolytes, solutions that contain flammable organic solvents. These solvents are responsible for fires and ...

A team of Japanese researchers has developed a non-flammable quasi-solid-state lithium-ion battery (LIB) to address safety ...

However, the ionic conductivity of sulfide-based solid electrolytes now exceeds that of the organic electrolyte solution used for lithium-ion batteries. This may lead to superior output and function ...
