PNNL: single-crystal nickel-rich cathode holds promise for next-generation Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

The PNNL researchers have developed a process to grow high-performance crystals in molten salts—sodium chloride, common table salt—at high temperature. volts—minimizes damage while still within the normal range of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles.
