MIT electrolyte enables ultra-high voltage Ni-rich cathodes in Li-metal batteries

Green Car Congress

The electrolyte not only suppresses side reactions, stress-corrosion cracking, transition-metal dissolution and impedance growth on the cathode side, but also enables highly reversible Li metal stripping and plating on the lithium-metal anode (LMA), leading to a compact morphology and low pulverization. —Jeremiah Johnson.

Penn State team devises solution for fast charging of Li-ion batteries at cold temperatures

Green Car Congress

Fast charging is seen as a solution for range and recharging time issues for EVs. However, a critical barrier to fast charging is temperature. Now, a team from Penn State has devised an approach that enables 15-min fast charging of Li-ion batteries in any temperatures (even at ? C charge at 10 °C and C/1.5
