KAUST uses laser pulses to boost performance of MXene electrode

Green Car Congress

The researchers hope that this strategy could help to engineer an improved anode material in next-generation batteries. These nanodots, roughly 10 nanometers wide, were connected to the MXene’s layers by carbon materials. Unlike graphite, MXenes can also intercalate sodium and potassium ions, notes Alshareef.

How clean is EV battery manufacturing?

Electric Auto Association

First, it should be noted that while internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles produce 17.2% of burned gasoline into energy to turn the wheels, electric vehicles (EVs) use 59-62% of the electrical energy from the battery to do the same. years if the car is charged using renewable energy.
