This week, prices for salt products such as cobalt sulfate and lithium carbonate saw slight increases, while nickel sulfate prices mainly fluctuated, experiencing a minor dip driven by declining ...

Layered lithium cobalt oxide, a key component of lithium-ion batteries, has been synthesized at temperatures as low as 300°C and durations as short as 30 minutes.

Similarly, the large separation of the cobalt oxide layers used in the Japanese experiment seems to be crucial in the superconducting behaviour of this compound. The main difference between the two ...

One approach to reducing cobalt content in lithium-ion batteries is to use alternative cathode materials. For example, researchers have explored the use of lithium-manganese-oxide (LMO) and ...
