A research team has succeeded in developing a non-flammable gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) that is set to revolutionize the safety of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) by mitigating the risks of thermal ...

Single-ion conducting polymer electrolytes represent a paradigm shift in lithium-battery design by immobilising anionic species within a polymer matrix, thereby allowing only lithium ions to migrate ...

UK-based Superdielectrics has launched the second-generation version of its polymer battery, the Faraday 2, aimed squarely at residential energy storage. The system is designed as a home-scale ...

Researchers at KAIST have achieved a significant extension of battery life purely through the design of the electrode surface. Schematic of an ultrathin artificial polymer layer (15 nm thick) ...

A recent article in Nature Communications introduced a bioinspired gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) designed for high-energy-density lithium metal batteries that can operate reliably across a wide ...

Chinese researchers have developed a ceramic-based lithium battery that remains stable in extreme heat, a breakthrough that could help power next-generation electronics in harsh environments.
