Clément and Seshadri are part of the Aqueous Battery Consortium (ABC) led by Stanford University/SLAC and involving 31 co-principal investigators from 15 institutions in the United States and Canada.
A research team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has developed a new method that will enable aqueous zinc-ion batteries to endure several hundred thousand charge and discharge cycles in ...
As an alternative, Okubo and his team are pursuing aqueous batteries. All batteries have three main components: a positive electrode, a negative electrode and an electrolyte. Unlike lithium-ion ...
The batteries use a water-salt solution as their electrolyte, removing the risks carried by some non-aqueous commercial models. The research is published in the journal Joule. "In the past ...
As part of an effort to overcome the long-term energy-storage challenge, University of Wisconsin–Madison engineers have invented a water-soluble chemical additive that improves the performance of a ...
