Panasonic’s CR 2 lithium manganese oxide battery. (Image credit: Kalabaha1969 via Wikipedia) Lithium manganese oxide (MnO 2) batteries actually come in two versions- one with a spinel structure ...

Lithium ion batteries have been around since 1991. Over the years vendors such as Sony, Toshiba, and Panasonic have tinkered with the anode, cathode, and separator chemistry and structure to make them ...

The lithium-cobalt-oxide battery has been on the market for 20 years, but researchers have long searched for a less expensive, higher capacity replacement. Wolverton’s team has improved upon the ...

There’s just one problem, but it’s a big one: The lithium-air battery is not so much a tangible, “existing” thing. In fact, it’s little more than a bunch of equations at this point.

Battery parts can be recycled without crushing or melting Date: April 29, 2021 Source: Aalto University Summary: Researchers have now discovered that electrodes in lithium batteries containing ...

Lithium-ion batteries are essential to modern technology. Containing lithium, along with metals like cobalt, graphite, manganese and nickel, they power cell phones, laptops, medical devices ...

With this technology, both companies can promote widespread use of lithium titanium oxide (LTO) chemistry for more efficient and longer lasting batteries. Company’s LTO batteries fully charge in ...

Lithium-ion battery pioneers bag chemistry Nobel prize. Although he and his colleagues still need to fully understand the catalysis mechanism at play in the cell, Zhou believes that the sealed Li 2 ...

Grinding up old batteries might lead to a low-energy way to recycle the lithium and other metals used in them. Lithum-ion batteries are in all our personal technology — such as phones, laptops ...
