Haphazardly arranged graphite flakes in a conventional anode (above left and center): lithium ions attempting to dock or return to the cathode are forced to take detours (above right). And it has the additional bonus of being transferable to other anode-cathode batteries such as those based on sodium. —Claire Villevieille.

Gadkari also stated that 100 % lithium-ion batteries, which are a critical component in electric vehicles, will be manufactured in India, while the government also conducts research on other readily available materials for batteries such as aluminium ion, sodium ion, steel ion, and zinc ion.

It was the most difficult chemistry” to make work but had potential benefits due to calcium’s low cost as well as its inherent high voltage as a negative electrode. But in this case, the researchers found that multiple ions in the molten-salt electrolyte contribute to the flow, boosting the battery’s overall energy output.
