New battery tech could make home solar batteries safer and last for decades.
1+ hour, 30+ min ago (526+ words) Sixty thousand charge cycles for industrial or grid-scale batteries is the kind of number that sounds like a typo at first, but Australian researchers say their new battery technology actually achieves it. A team at Flinders University has solved a…...
3D printed batteries could solve the battery anxiety for your gadgets
2+ mon, 1+ day ago (656+ words) For years, battery innovation has largely focused on chemistry. Companies have chased longer-lasting lithium-ion cells, safer solid-state batteries, and cheaper materials. But a quieter revolution is now gaining momentum, and it could fundamentally change how batteries are designed, manufactured, and…...
Chinese researchers develop high-voltage sodium–sulfur battery that could challenge lithium batteries
7+ mon, 1+ week ago (515+ words) A team of researchers in China has just pulled the curtain back on a new sodium-sulfur battery design that could fundamentally change the math on energy storage. By leaning into the very chemistry that has historically made sulfur a headache…...
Thinner lithium sulfur batteries could fit your devices without bulky packs
7+ mon, 1+ day ago (700+ words) Lithium-sulfur batteries can pack a lot of energy for their weight. But a Science X Dialog post on Tech Xplore says they usually need more space than todays lithium-ion batteries, about 1.5 to 2 times as much. That extra bulk makes it…...
New tech promises to make colorful solar cells to jazz up your house
7+ mon, 1+ week ago (643+ words) One of the most interesting updates in the solar energy space comes from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (via EES Solar), where researchers have developed 3D-printed, semi-transparent, flexible perovskite solar cells with adjustable color and transparency. Traditionally, solar panels are…...
Applications of advanced aramid fibers in modern consumer design
9+ mon, 3+ week ago (232+ words) Six times stronger than steel, aromatic polyamide (aramid) is a kind of synthetic, high-performance fiber commonly used in aerospace, automotive, and military applications. Recently, these advanced composite materials have found their way into the mobile accessories industry. Today, aramid fibers…...
