In a discovery that could reduce or even eliminate the use of cobalt—which is often mined using child labor—in the batteries that power electric cars and other products, scientists at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) have developed a long-lasting alternative made with nickel. The LiNi 0.5 V vs graphite, at 1 C, 1.5 mA cm

Germany-based Liacon, one of Europe’s largest battery manufacturers, has released a new, more versatile lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery that can replace all Group 31 lead-acid units. Group 31 batteries are one of the highest selling in the market. Lead acid batteries typically get 200-400 cycles before they fail.

Using a microscopic method for measuring electrical potential, a team of scientists at Sandia National Laboratories may have discovered how to identify rate-limiting processes in solid-state batteries. Solid-state batteries employ solid electrolytes instead of electrochemical gels and liquids and generally power small electronics.

Then the team tested the material’s electrical performance as the anode, with lithium metal as the cathode, inside a coin-shaped battery. (a) In comparison, lithium-ion batteries made with other carbon-based anodes, including graphite and carbon nanotubes, held almost no charge at freezing temperatures.
