Researchers at the University of Akron have developed hierarchical porous Mn 3 O 4 /C nanospheres as anode materials for Li-ion batteries. mA/g), excellent ratability (425 mAh/g at 4 A/g), and extremely long cycle life (no significant capacity fading after 3000 cycles at 4A/g) as an anode in a Li-ion battery. Li/Li + ).

A team at Nankai University in China has devised high-performance Li-sulfur battery cathode materials consisting of sulfur nanodots (2 nm average) directly electrodeposited on flexible nickel foam; the cathode materials incorporate no carbon or binder. mg/cm 2 S on the Ni foam exhibited high initial discharge capacity (1458 mAh/g at 0.1

Metal oxides of earth-abundant elements are promising electrocatalysts to overcome the sluggish oxygen evolution and oxygen reduction reaction (OER/ORR) in many electrochemical energy-conversion devices. Other two amorphous bimetallic, Ni 0.4 O x and Ni 0.33 However, it is difficult to control their catalytic activity precisely.

In 2015 we demonstrated that specific transition metals at the cathode, such as Ni, Co, Cu and Fe, act as nucleation points for high yield carbon nanotube growth in molten carbonates. Addition of up to 50 mol% Na 2 CO 3 to a Li 2 CO 3 electrolyte decreases electrolyte costs and improves conditions for intercalation in Na-ion CNT anodes.

The US Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) is conducting research on alternative options to reduce costs and make large-scale energy storage safer and more practical. Magnesium is much more abundant in the Earth’s crust, making it less expensive than Li by a factor of 24. Earlier post.)

MidAmericans David Sokol, BYDs Wang, and company advisor Li Lu flew with Sokol from Detroit to Omaha so that Wang could meet Buffett in person. he once tried to disassemble the seat of a Toyota owned by Fred Ni, an executive who was driving him around. Near the end of our conversation, I ask Wang about the company name.
