Researchers make new discovery that could shatter limitations on battery performance: 'Highly promising'

A group of battery researchers may have a fix for lithium-air batteries that brings their theoretical potential to reality, according to findings published by EurekAlert. The Chinese team has developed a diplomat of sorts to serve as a mediator inside the packs. The substance's goal is to facilitate charge transport, as well as to counteract conditions that hinder performance and shorten the unit's lifespan. The group includes experts from Dali…

Scientists discover way to revive batteries by injecting fresh lithium

First, some context on why batteries degrade. Lithium-ion battery aging is primarily influenced by the growth of the Solid Electrolyte Interphase (SEI) layer on the anode, which consumes lithium ions and increases resistance. Over time, this, along with electrode degradation and electrolyte breakdown, reduces the battery's capacity.Read Entire Article
