A joint research team from Tohoku University and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has made a significant advance towards high-voltage metal-free lithium-ion batteries by using a small organic molecule: croconic acid. Most reported organic batteries to date, however, possess a relatively low (1-3V) working voltage.

Researchers at Hasselt University in Belgium are proposing a new class of solid composite electrolytes (SCEs) for Li-ion batteries: deep eutectic solvent (DES)–silica composites. Structural schematic of a Li/LFP cell with the ETG as electrolyte. V versus Li, and unable to stop the growth of lithium dendrites.

Balsara at UC Berkeley, have identified a new class of nonflammable electrolytes based on functionalized perfluoropolyethers (PFPEs) for lithium-ion batteries. In addition to being nonflammable, PFPE exhibits very interesting properties such as its ion transport. That makes this electrolyte stand apart from previous discoveries.

Saft was recently awarded a contract from Lockheed Martin for delivery of e6T Li-ion battery systems for the engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) phase of the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) Program. The 6T battery is commonly used in military vehicles, and to-date has been based on lead-acid chemistry. Earlier post.].

Magnesium batteries have long been considered a potentially safer and less expensive alternative to lithium-ion batteries, but previous versions have been severely limited in the power they delivered. Magnesium ions hold twice the charge of lithium, while having a similar ionic radius. —Dong et al.

John Goodenough at the University of Texas at Austin and colleague Kyu-Sung Park have written a perspective paper on Li-ion batteries (LIBs), published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. This shift of emphasis leads inevitably to the electrolyte, catalysts, and organic multiple-electron redox centers. Resources.
