Gravimetric Ragone plot comparing energy and power characteristics of CNF electrodes based on the pristine and discharged electrode weight with that of LiCoO 2. This translates to an energy enhancement ~4 times greater than the state-of-the-art lithium intercalation compounds such as LiCoO 2 (~600 W h kg electrode -1 , the researchers said.

V), which renders the system with a low round-trip energy efficiency around 60%. Recently, researchers have also found out the instability of electrolyte and carbon electrode under the high charging potential (>3.5 O 2 battery containing a potassium metal foil, a glassy fiber separator and a porous carbon electrode, with 0.5

Sample UDRI solid-state, rechargeable lithium-air batteries, and Dr. Binod Kumar. Engineers at the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI) have developed a solid-state, rechargeable lithium-air battery. The theoretical specific energy of the Li-air cell is 13,000 Wh/kg—the highest of any metal-air battery system.
