Researchers at A*STAR in Singapore are proposing the use of monolayer phosphorene—a 2D material isolated from black phosphorus—as an anode material for high charging voltage, high rate capability Li-ion batteries. High specific discharge capacities were maintained at fast C rates (2270, 1750, 1500, and 1240 mAh·g ?1 Batteries'

Singapore-based TUM CREATE unveiled an electric taxi prototype designed for tropical megacities, codenamed EVA, at the Tokyo Motor Show. EVA’s monocoque structure is made entirely of carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) and is one of the largest that has been made of this material. Click to enlarge.

Researchers from Nanyang Technical University (NTU) in Singapore have shown high-capacity, high-rate, and durable lithium- and sodium-ion battery (LIB and NIB) performance using single-crystalline long-range-ordered bilayered VO 2 nanoarray electrodes. The VO 2 nanoarrays are supported on graphene foam (GF) and coated with a thin (?2

A chemist and government researcher, Wang raised some $300,000 from relatives, rented about 2,000 square meters of space, and set out to manufacture rechargeable batteries to compete with imports from Sony and Sanyo. One way or another, Sokol says, energy companies will need to produce more energy while emitting less carbon dioxide.
