Liox Power reports first operation of a Li-air battery with a straight-chain alkyl amide electrolyte solvent; new direction for Li-air research

Green Car Congress

Researchers at startup Liox Power, a California-based company developing rechargeable Li-air batteries, have demonstrated for the first time the operation of a lithium-air battery with a Li anode in a straight-chain alkyl amide electrolyte solvent (N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA)/lithium nitrate (LiNO 3 )).

Jülich, ORNL researchers advance high energy density iron-air batteries

Green Car Congress

Using in-situ electrochemical atomic force microscopy ( in-situ EC-AFM) at the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences at ORNL, they were able to observe how deposits of iron hydroxide particles (Fe(OH) 2 ) form at the iron electrode under conditions similar to those prevalent during charging and discharging.
