UCR researchers find commercial fast-charging damages EV batteries, propose new internal-resistance-based technique

Green Car Congress

Commercial fast-charging stations subject electric car batteries to high temperatures and high resistance that can cause them to crack, leak, and lose their storage capacity, according to researchers at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) in a new open-access study published in the journal Energy Storage.

Study identifies halogen-free superhalogen electrolytes for Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Most electrolytes currently used in Li-ion batteries contain halogens, which are toxic. An in-depth study based on first-principles calculations by researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University has shown that the anions of commercially available electrolytes for Li-ion batteries are all superhalogens.

High capacity germanium oxide/germanium nanocomposite for Li-ion anode material

Green Car Congress

Researchers from the University of Wollongong, Australia and the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), S. Korea, have developed a germanium oxide/germanium nanocomposite (GeO 2 /Ge/C) anode material for Li-ion batteries that shows a high capacity of up to 1860 mAh/g at 1 C (2.1 Li+ (2152 mAh/ g).
