Researchers at Ohio State University (OSU) have demonstrated the concept of a potassium-air (K?O V), which contributes to the low rechargeability. Potassium, an alkali metal similar to lithium (and sodium) can be used in a rechargeable battery. O 2 battery (0.5 M KPF6 in DME) at a current density of 0.16
