UNIST team develops new electrolyte additive for high-energy-density Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) in Korea have developed an innovative electrolyte additive that enables a high-energy-density Li-ion battery to retain more than 80% of its initial capacity even after hundreds of cycles. The amount of metal inside the anode determines the battery capacity.
