Another key reason CATL, BYD, and others are investing in sodium-ion batteries is to mitigate rising lithium prices. Sodium ...

Sodium-ion batteries are considered a promising, sustainable alternative to lithium-ion batteries. However, high storage ...

Anybody who has ever enjoyed fresh crab legs or lobster tails can attest to how difficult it is to get through their tough shells. But instead of just throwing them away, researchers are “upcycling” ...

Dual-shell LiF@spinel coating enhances lithium-rich cathode stability. Schematic illustration and electrochemical performance of lithium-rich cathodes with and without the LiF@spinel dual shell. The ...

But soon, prices crashed back down to earth. We saw lower-than-expected demand for EVs in the US, and developers ramped up mining and processing to meet demand. Through late 2024 and 2025, lithium ...

Scientists have found that a thin silver coating can strengthen solid-state lithium batteries, helping prevent cracks and failures.

A research team at Hebei University and Longyan University has introduced a promising LiF@spinel dual-shell coating for lithium-rich cathodes, published in Energy Materials and Devices. Image Credit: ...

Instead, sodium-ion batteries rely on “hard carbon,” a porous form of carbon that can hold sodium but also makes unwanted ...

Sodium-ion batteries are considered a promising, sustainable alternative to lithium-ion batteries.
