Researchers develop rechargeable hybrid-seawater fuel cell; highly energy density, stable cycling

Green Car Congress

Sodium can serve as an alternative to lithium in rechargeable batteries as the reversible storage mechanisms for sodium ions are very similar (e.g., M NaClO 4 in ethylene carbonate/DEC) for 1 day and washed by DEC for the stored Sn-C anode. 1 , respectively. earlier post ). The Sn-C anode was kept in liquid electrolyte (1?M

RPI researchers develop safe, long-cycling Li-metal rechargeable battery electrode; demonstrate Li-carbon battery

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have developed a safe, extended cycling lithium-metal electrode for rechargeable Li-ion batteries by entrapping lithium metal within a porous graphene network (Li-PGN). In this regard this concept is no different from a conventional Li-ion battery. O 2 and Li 3 V 1.98 Mukherjee et al.
