Next-generation lithium–sulfur batteries: Scientists develop large-area, high-capacity prototypes

Dr. Park Jun-woo’s team at KERI’s Next Generation Battery Research Center has overcome a major obstacle to the commercialization of next-generation lithium – sulfur batteries and successfully developed large-area, high-capacity prototypes. The work is published in the journal Advanced Science. The lithium–sulfur battery, composed of sulfur as the cathode (+) and lithium metal as the anode (-), has a theoretical […]

AI can ‘hear’ when a lithium battery is about to catch fire

Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a way to use sound to detect when lithium-ion batteries are about to catch fire. The NIST team included Wai Cheong “Andy” Tam and Anthony Putorti. Lithium-ion batteries are all around us: They can be in your phone, in your laptop, in an […]

Lithium-sulfur battery retains 80% charge capacity after 25,000 cycles

An international team of engineers and materials scientists has developed a lithium-sulfur battery capable of retaining 80% of its charge capacity after 25,000 cycles. Their paper is published in the journal Nature. To make batteries smaller and lighter, engineers continually look for new materials. Such efforts tend to focus on the electrodes where lithium is held by other […]

Ecycling batteries with citric acid: Research introduces highly efficient process for NCM lithium-ion batteries

A simple, highly efficient, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly process could provide a viable pathway for the sustainable recycling of depleted lithium-ion batteries (LIBs): No chemicals beyond citric acid need to be added to leach out and separate over 99% of the lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese metals contained in NCM batteries. A simple, highly efficient, […]

Saltwater flooding is a serious fire threat for EVs and other devices with lithium-ion batteries

Flooding from hurricanes Helene and Milton inflicted billions of dollars in damage across the Southeast in September and October 2024, pushing buildings off their foundations and undercutting roads and bridges. It also caused dozens of electric vehicles and other battery-powered objects, such as scooters and golf carts, to catch fire. According to one tally, 11 electric cars and […]
