KAUST team alters atomic composition of MoS2 to boost performance as water-splitting catalyst for H2 production

Green Car Congress

This technique may also have potential benefits for other manufacturing industries. Two-dimensional layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials such as Molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) have been recognized as one of the low-cost and efficient electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). —Lain-Jong Li.

Stanford team develops ultra-fast aluminum-ion battery with stability over thousands of cycles

Green Car Congress

Aluminum has long been an attractive material for batteries, mainly because of its low cost, low flammability and high-charge storage capacity. Other authors are Di-Yan Wang, Mingyun Guan, Michael Angell, Changxin Chen and Jiang Yang from Stanford; and Bing-Joe Hwang from National Taiwan Normal University. Resources. “An

Umicore and 3M Form NMC Cathode Materials Relationship

Green Car Congress

Under the agreement, 3M grants Umicore a license to patents US6964828, US7078128 and equivalents in Taiwan, China, Japan, and the EU, thereby granting Umicore access to a family of NMC cathode material compositions for manufacture and sales to lithium-ion battery manufacturers. The two have gravimetric discharge caps (4.3V Earlier post.).

UK Carbon Trust report says fuel cell vehicles could take more than 30% of mid-sized car market by 2050

Green Car Congress

It would also reduce global carbon emissions from vehicles by an additional 260 million tonnes per year by 2050—equivalent to the current annual emissions of Taiwan. Our new analysis shows that the future is bright but innovation is essential to unlock the market potential by driving down the costs of new polymer fuel cells.

Stanford team reports new low-cost, non-precious metal catalyst for water splitting with performance close to platinum

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Stanford University, with colleagues at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and other institutions, have developed a nickel-based electrocatalyst for low-cost water-splitting for hydrogen production with performance close to that of much more expensive commercial platinum electrocatalysts.
