Revolutionary battery can self-assemble and charge your phone in SECONDS
What if you could fully charge your phone within seconds? That is exactly what researchers at Cornell University say their new battery will let you do, a study published in Energy & Environmental Science reports. A conventional battery is composed of an anode on one side and a cathode on another, separated by a non-conducting […]

Returned to full power: Engineers have developed a process that restores worn cathodes from used lithium ion batteries to build new ones
Humanity as a whole is creating far too much waste from the use of batteries, rechargeable or otherwise. Now a group of nanoengineers from the University of California, San Diego (UC San Diego) have managed to develop a method of recycling batteries that not only makes them usable again, but also restores them to their […]

Supercapacitor technology breakthrough may lead to a dependable alternative to storing energy
Humanity has truly come a long way as far as battery technology is concerned. Nowadays, it’s clear that lithium-ion is the undisputed king out of all the possible battery technology standards in the modern world. It powers the majority of electronic devices and is the kind of battery that most people are familiar with. However, […]

Researchers develop lithium-ion batteries that keep working even in sub-zero temperatures, showing potential for use in future space missions
Lithium-ion batteries became the global standard for power that they are because of one simple reason: They just work. They’ve been used to power all sorts of things from consumer electronic gadgets to industrial-level devices. Now a team of researchers in China has managed to come up with a method that could completely remove one […]

Layered oxides may be the key to extending the life of the environmentally-friendly zinc-ion battery
The future of battery storage technology hangs in the balance. The standard lithium-ion battery technology that is widely used today, as it turns out, may not be the best solution for large-scale applications due to a number of reasons. Now a team of researchers has developed a way to create a viable alternative, in the […]

Is it possible to recycle lithium ion batteries?
The idea of recycling batteries has been around for quite a long time now, perhaps just as long as batteries themselves have been around. After all, if scientists and other experts are already able to recycle so many other things, why not do the same with batteries as well? One of the biggest benefits of […]
