NASICON is a crystal structure with high levels of conductivity ... sintering (SPS)―to achieve a high relative density in sodium superionic conductors. By doing so, defects such as pores ...

This helps to visualise the structure. A two-dimensional model for the ionic lattice in sodium chloride A 2D model shows the arrangement of one layer of ions but it does have a major additional ...

Sodium metal chloride batteries were originally developed for electric vehicles in the 1980s and 1990s, but cost reductions and scale have been held back by their cost structure. Inlyte’s team ...

Transition metals have long been used as catalysts to activate small molecules and turn them into valuable products. However, as these metals can be expensive and less abundant, scientists are ...
