Check this out! Solid-state batteries are a great offset to lithium-ion. Polymer science leading the way. Best regards, Jeff. A recent study focused on polymer binders could point to future breakthroughs in solid-state batteries, enabling safer, more powerful, and longer-lasting energy storage. Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have discovered that the molecular weight of these often-overlooked components plays a crucial role in the performance and durability of sulfide solid-state electrolytes (SSEs), a key element of next-generation battery technology.

Meet the Zucker Lab in Environmental Materials and Processes, led by Dr. Ines Zucker. The Zucker Lab focuses on designing, characterizing, and testing materials for environmental applications, with a strong emphasis on nanomaterials and their impacts. The lab’s research areas include developing advanced water treatment technologies utilizing nanomaterials with reactive and tunable properties for selective pollutant removal, cost-efficiency, and sustainability. Additionally, the lab investigates nanotoxicity by studying interactions between living cells and emerging nanomaterials using model phospholipid bilayer membranes and is working on practical oxidation technologies to remove organic contaminants from wastewater and groundwater.

A Roadmap for Transforming Research to Invent the Batteries of the Future Designed within the European Large Scale Research Initiative BATTERY 2030+ This roadmap presents the transformational research ideas proposed by “BATTERY 2030+,” the European large-scale research initiative for future battery chemistries. A “chemistry-neutral” roadmap to advance battery research, particularly at low technology readiness levels, is outlined, with a time horizon of more than ten years. The roadmap is centered around six themes: 1) accelerated  materials discovery platform, 2) battery interface genome, with the integration of smart functionalities such as 3) sensing and 4) self-healing processes. Beyond chemistry related aspects also include crosscutting research regarding 5) manufacturability and 6) recyclability. This roadmap should be seen as an enabling complement to the global battery roadmaps which focus on expected ultrahigh battery performance, especially for the future of transport. Batteries are used in many applications and are considered to be one technology necessary to reach the climate goals. Currently the market is dominated by lithium ion batteries, which perform well, but despite new generations coming in the near future, they will soon approach their performance limits. Without major breakthroughs, battery performance and production requirements will not be sufficient to enable the building of a climate-neutral society. Through this “chemistry neutral” approach a generic toolbox transforming the way batteries are developed, designed and manufactured, will be created. #battery #batterytechnology #lithium #lithiumbattery

🔋 Interested in fast-charging batteries? A paper by MAPEX member Fabio La Mantia and his colleagues in the journal Electrochimica Acta takes a closer look at the electron-transfer reaction between electrode and redox pair – the fundamental phenomenon in all electrochemical systems. "By analyzing this reaction under different salt concentrations," explains La Mantia, Professor at the Institute for Production Engineering at Universität Bremen, "we have demonstrated that the classic textbook description of the electron-transfer reaction does not always apply. Instead the reaction should be described as a coupled electron- and ion-transfer. This has strong implications in understanding the reactions behind hydrogen production and fast-charging batteries, among other technologies."
