X-ray Diffraction (XRD) plays a pivotal role in material characterization during the production of lithium-ion battery electrodes. For anodes, it helps analyze the degree of graphitization in graphite ...

Solid-state lithium metal batteries (SS-LMBs) exhibit higher energy density than conventional lithium-ion batteries. However, the use of lithium metal as an anode in large-scale manufacturing remains ...

Tsukuba, Japan—Despite hydrogen's increasing prominence as a future energy source, the safe and large-scale transportation of gaseous hydrogen remains challenging. Researchers are exploring ways to ...

Redwood Materials intends to set up some of the first U.S. plants producing anodes and cathodes for electric vehicle batteries. Redwood Materials, which recycles old lithium-ion batteries and makes ...

IN THEir QUEST to build a better battery, researchers have blazed a trail through the elements of the periodic table. The earliest prototype cells ran on nickel and cadmium; successors have used ...
