PNNL team develops electrolyte for high-voltage sodium-ion battery with extended longevity

Green Car Congress

Cheap and abundant, sodium is a promising candidate for new battery technology. However, the limited performance of sodium-ion batteries has hindered large-scale application. A paper on the work appears in Nature Energy. Sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) have attracted worldwide attention for next-generation energy storage systems.

New high performance Janus electrode for rechargeable Na-S batteries

Green Car Congress

containing both cathode and anode properties in the same body—for sodium-sulfur (Na-S) batteries by adopting a metal-organic framework (MOF) to incorporate single Yttrium atoms in a nitrogen-doped rhombododecahedron carbon host (Y SAs/NC). Researchers in China have designed a high-performance Janus electrode—i.e., 2c07655.

New solid-electrolyte interphase may boost prospects for rechargeable Li-metal batteries

Green Car Congress

Rechargeable lithium metal batteries with increased energy density, performance, and safety may be possible with a newly-developed, solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI), according to Penn State researchers. The same approach was also applied to design stable SEI layers for sodium and zinc anodes. Credit: Donghai Wang,Penn State.

Stanford team develops sodium-ion battery with performance equivalent to Li-ion, but at much lower cost

Green Car Congress

Stanford researchers have developed a sodium-ion battery (SIB) that can store the same amount of energy as a state-of-the-art lithium ion, at substantially lower cost. Thus, further research is required to find better sodium host materials. Thus, further research is required to find better sodium host materials.
