Georgia Tech team develops simple, low-cost process for oxide nanowires; superior separators for Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

This technique could open the door for a range of synthesis opportunities to produce low-cost 1D nanomaterials in large quantities. As result, commercial batteries may induce fires and explosions, if not designed very carefully; further, it’s extremely hard to avoid defects and errors consistently in tens of millions of devices.
