Battery cycling data for poly(S-r-DIB) (10 wt% DIB, C/10 rate). A University of Arizona-led international research team has developed a simple process for making lightweight plastics from elemental sulfur; the team has successfully used a new polymeric sulfur produced via the process as an electrode material for lithium-sulfur batteries.

This slower growth is attributed to the relatively higher cost of the vehicles, driven by the cost of batteries. China will see the largest increase—more than 4 million oil-equivalent barrels per day. The outlook projects that oil and natural gas will continue to meet about 60% of energy needs by 2040.
