German researchers have designed an innovative measurement method that tracks battery health live during operation.

In less than two minutes, a fast-moving fire that started with a lithium-ion battery filled Jody Burgoyne’s home with smoke and flames. A home surveillance camera in their kitchen captured a sudden ...

During slow charge, the lithium ions are gradually inserted between sheets of graphite. However, when the charge rates increase, instead of intercalation the lithium ions accumulate at the graphite, ...

And let’s not forget the potential for our beloved smartphones, laptops, and wearable tech, all filled with lithium-ion batteries thirsting for a sip of that sweet, fast-charging nectar.

Lithium-ion batteries, found in many popular consumer products, are under scrutiny again following a massive fire this week in New York City thought to be caused by the battery that powered an ...

For as much capacity lithium-ion batteries have, their useful lifespan is generally measured in the hundreds of cycles. This degradation is caused by the electrodes themselves degrading, including … ...

Currently, lithium-ion batteries can't economically handle large-scale storage, mostly due to their high cost and safety risks. Proton batteries offer a practical solution to these challenges.

Extreme Fast Charging Capability in Graphite Anode via a Lithium Borate Type Biobased Polymer as Aqueous Polyelectrolyte Binder. ACS Materials Letters, 2023; 5 (2): 413 DOI: 10.1021 ...

On June 9, charging e-bikes also caused a house fire on Sunnydale Way in Reisterstown. Last week, a Tesla caught fire, and the cause was linked to the lithium-ion battery, officials said.
