Electric vehicles have a cold weather problem, and drivers in places like Minnesota or Alberta feel it every winter when range drops and charging slows to a crawl. A new polymer-based battery design ...

Lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) are rechargeable batteries that contain an anode (i.e., the electrode through which current flows and a loss of electrons occurs) made of lithium metal. Compared to ...

Solid-state electrolytes are crucial for developing next-generation batteries with enhanced safety and energy density. Among them, the polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)-based gel polymer electrolytes ...

Top-spec tech always costs a pretty penny, and the inexpensive stuff is cheap for a reason. With these tech products, a ...

Solid-state batteries could store more energy and charge faster than today’s batteries, but they tend to crack and fail over time. Stanford researchers found that a nanoscale silver treatment can ...

Why lithium batteries in our phones and laptops keep failing us - and how to lower that risk ...

The race is on to find safer alternatives to lithium-ion batteries, and a Kennesaw State University researcher is helping ...

A faulty lithium-ion battery is a serious hazard and can catch fire. Here's what to do if the unthinkable happens - and some preventive measures.

For instance, fitting upcoming electric vehicles with improved lithium-ion cells may make EVs more appealing to drivers who ...

A battery electrolyte that is solid at normal temperatures yet still conducts ions could make lithium batteries safer and longer lasting by replacing flammable liquids.

ProLogium Technology, a developer of lithium ceramic solid-state batteries, marked its 20th anniversary at CES 2026 by unveiling its proprietary "Superfluidized All-Inorganic Solid-State Lithium ...

Researchers at KAIST have achieved a significant extension of battery life purely through the design of the electrode surface. Schematic of an ultrathin artificial polymer layer (15 nm thick) ...
