Argonne National Laboratory has undertaken a study of the basic mechanisms that allow electrolyte additives to dramatically improve the performance and cycle-life of lithium ion batteries.
The Fourth of July is almost here. But did you know that the development of firework shows requires an understanding of science, chemistry, physics, and engineering?
The technology to pull carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and make useful things from it is here. But unless it can be done profitably, it’s unlikely that we will use it, despite its importance in reducing climate change.
Volkswagen’s electric Pikes Peak racer needs to be able to charge its batteries at an altitude of more than 9,000 feet in less than 20 minutes. Here's how the company will do it.
Universities and research labs around the world are working together to create better solid electrolytes to bring us beyond the current lithium ion battery technology.
