Researchers at U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a new imaging technique that allows them to observe lithium-ion reactions in real time with nanoscale ...

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have quantified lithium intercalation rates across various battery materials and utilized this information to create a novel model explaining ...

Highly reactive organometallic reagents, like organolithiums (molecules with a carbon–lithium bond) are essential reagents in organic synthesis because of their applications from polymer synthesis to ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has demonstrated that liquid electrolytes, when frozen, can still facilitate lithium-ion conduction sufficient for battery operation—challenging the traditional ...

In chemistry, some problems are so persistent that they are nicknamed “forever.” Perfluoroalkyl and ...

Solvent extraction supports the migration of lithium ions from brine into an organic liquid phase that contains a specific ...

Lithium metal batteries promise dramatically higher energy density than today’s lithium-ion systems, yet their widespread use remains limited by unstable lithium deposition, dendrite growth, and rapid ...

A string of peer-reviewed studies from Chinese research teams is advancing water-based battery technology that stores energy ...

Solid electrolytes are neither volatile nor flammable, unlike the liquid electrolytes used in conventional lithium-ion batteries. Discovery of a new lithium-air battery that can store much more energy ...
