Researchers at Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) have developed a polymer binder—PAA-P(HEA-co-DMA)—for use with silicon microparticle (SiMP) anodes. Its network structure and special self-healing capability not only provides enough mechanical support but also buffers the strain caused by the volume change of SiMPs.

Cost reduction potential of a polymer fuel cell system using an ITM Power membrane. ITM Power has published figures showing what it believes is the highest ever polymer fuel cell power density using hydrogen as the fuel and ordinary air, rather than pure oxygen.

Any whisper of production bottlenecks at Tesla inevitably recalls the Model 3's troubled launch in 2017 and 2018 , the one that had Musk sleeping in his office. That chemistry, once dismissed for its puny energy density, is suddenly prized for low cost, long life and reassuring safety; especially for entry-priced models.
