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

Green Car Congress

Contemporary battery materials impose a finite limit on GED/SP due to thermal and mechanical failure modes of battery electrodes and membrane separators. The shelf-life of stored charge in rechargeable devices does not scale linearly with maximum SP and has led to trends referred to as ‘range-anxiety’, ‘compulsive charging’, etc.
