Fraunhofer IWS in Dresden, Germany will hold its 3rd annual workshop on Lithium-sulfurbatteries from 12-13 November 2014. As with the prior Lithium-SulfurBattery Workshops in 2012 and 2013, this year’s symposium will bring together an international audience of scientists and industrial customers.
nm, average) of iron pyrite (FeS 2 ) nanoparticles are advantageous to sustain reversible conversion reactions in sodium ion and lithium ion batteries. In this work we explore the sodium and lithium conversion of ultrafine FeS 2 nanoparticles, with a tight size distribution centered around ∼4.5 nanometers in size.
Supported by an ARPA-E grant, LiRAP has proven to be a safe alternative compared to the liquid electrolytes used in most of today’s lithium ion batteries. PATHION is working on a derivative for Li-sulfurbatteries as well as a derivative that could be applied in a sodium-ion battery. Lithiumsulfur.
Conventional processes for manufacturing battery electrodes involve mostly toxic solvents and require a lot of space and energy. DRYtraec thus is a promising solution developed by an interdisciplinary research team at Fraunhofer IWS in Dresden that focuses on the production of the battery electrodes.
Researchers at Stanford University and SLAC led by Stanford associate professor Yi Cui have used a sulfur–TiO 2 yolk–shell design for a cathode material for a lithium-sulfurbattery that achieved an initial specific capacity of 1,030?mAh?g Click to enlarge. C and Coulombic efficiency of 98.4% over 1,000 cycles.
A team of researchers from China and Germany have used azulene—a benzene-free and vinyl-free molecule—to polymerize with sulfur to create a cathode material for Li-S batteries. Cycling performance of Az-S and pure sulfur at 0.3 Cycling performance of Az-S and pure sulfur at 0.3 Chen et al. —Chen et al.
A team of researchers from institutions in China and the US report the design of a negatively charged graphene composite separator for the effective suppression of the polysulfide shuttling effect in Li-sulfurbatteries. 2018.07.022.
-sulfur phase within carbon nanofibers that enables successful operation of Lithium-Sulfur (Li-S) batteries in carbonate electrolyte for 4000 cycles. Carbonates are known to adversely react with the intermediate polysulfides and shut down Li-S batteries in first discharge. —Pai et al. —Pai et al.
Based in Joplin, MO, EaglePicher is a designer and manufacturer of batteries, battery management systems and energetic devices for the defense, aerospace and medical industries. million to develop a new generation of high energy, low cost planar liquid sodium beta batteries for grid scale electrical power storage applications.
million (US$31-million) commitment to build on its momentum in four key research challenges: extending battery life; battery modelling; recycling and reuse; and solid-state batteries. Also, a focused research project on battery safety has been assembled, integrating research previously carried out in several different projects.
The Faraday Institution will award up to £55 million (US$67 million) to five UK-based consortia to conduct application-inspired research to make step changes in battery chemistries, systems and manufacturing methods. Next generation sodium ion batteries–NEXGENNA.
New composite materials based on selenium (Se) sulfides used as the cathode in a rechargeable lithium-ion battery could increase Li-ion density five times, according to research carried out at the US Department of Energy’s Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory. Recently, lithium?sulfur sulfur (Li/S) and lithium?oxygen
Researchers from Texas A&M and Purdue have developed a new cathode material for Li-S batteries based on what they call carbon compartments (CCs)—conductive 3D carbon mesostructures that possess macro- and meso-pores that allow for high loading of sulfur nanoparticles and enhanced electrolyte-sulfur contact.
Stellantis Ventures has made a strategic investment in France-based sodium-ion battery developer Tiamat. Tiamat says its sodium-ion technology is lithium- and cobalt-free and cheaper per kilowatt hour (kWh) when compared with lithium-ion batteries.
As she drives her electric vehicle to her mother’s house, Monique’s battery gauge indicates that it’s time to reenergize. The battery in her EV is a variation on the flow battery , a design in which spent electrolyte is replaced rather than recharged. A battery that mitigates these problems is DARPA’s objective.
Tiamat was one of 11 top-performing technology startups honoured with a Stellantis Ventures Award in 2023, and is the first company in the world to have recently commercialized a sodium-ion technology in an electrified product. Sodium-ion technology offers a lower cost per kilowatt-hour and is free of lithium and cobalt.
Stellantis adds another institution to its list of next-generation energy storage partners searching for the sustainable EV battery of the future. The post Stellantis Seeks New EV Battery, Free From Sketchy Materials appeared first on CleanTechnica.
Scientists inform us that today’s transportation sector is the largest contributor to US greenhouse gas emissions driving climate change, but how clean are lithium-ion batteries? of burned gasoline into energy to turn the wheels, electric vehicles (EVs) use 59-62% of the electrical energy from the battery to do the same.
Stellantis Ventures, the corporate venture fund of Stellantis, today announced its participation as a strategic investor in Tiamat, a France-based company that is developing and commercializing sodium-ion battery technology. Sodium-ion technology offers a lower cost per kilowatt-hour and is free of lithium and cobalt.
Its physical structure allows it to store lithium ions. There are three main forms of graphite: spherical graphite is used in non-EV battery applications, whereas EV batteries use a blend of coated spherical graphite and synthetic graphite. Battery makers use a blend of CSG and synthetic graphite to form Li-ion battery anodes.
Electric car batteries are a crucial component in the development of electric vehicles (EVs) and have seen significant advancements in recent years. For example the volumetric energy density of lithium-ion batteries has increased eightfold since 2008, from around 55 watt-hours/litre to 450 watt-hours/litre in 2020.

For example, the mineral requirements for an EV’s batteries and electric motors are six times that of an ICE vehicle, which can increase the average weight of an EV by 340 kgs (750 pounds). EVs require automakers to design new manufacturing processes and build plants to make both EVs and their batteries. Ford and its.
