Researchers improve the performance of sodium-ion batteries by using tailored carbon anodes with hierarchical porosity

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Justus Liebig University, Giessen, Germany, have improved the performance of sodium-ion batteries ( earlier post ) by using tailor-made carbon materials with hierarchical porosity for the anode instead of common carbon-based anode materials. Advance Article doi: 10.1039/C1EE01744F. Performance of the new anodes.

Debunking the Lithium "Mining" FUD

Plug In India

Team PluginIndia The Lithium mining FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) created by some paid media organizations and random YouTube channels is so bad, that many people read headlines of such articles and assume that Lithium mining is the worst thing in the world and is worse than extracting and refining 10,000 liters of oil used by an average ICE car.

OSU smart membrane could enable new category of high-energy, high-power energy storage for EVs

Green Car Congress

A team at the Ohio State University has developed a membrane that regulates bi-directional ion transport across it as a function of its redox state and that could be used as a programmable smart membrane separator in future supercapacitors and redox flow batteries. plugin EVs to Tesla’s 85 kWh battery pack). — Herya and Sundaresan.

WMG researchers use graphene girders to improve performance of Si anodes in Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Researchers at WMG (Warwick Manufacturing Group), The University of Warwick (UK) have developed Silicon-Few Layer Graphene (Si-FLG) composite electrodes as an effective approach to replacing graphite in the anodes of lithium-ion batteries. Graphene is a single, one-atom-thick layer of the mineral graphite (an allotrope of carbon).
