But what about sulfur? Nobody seems to think much about poor sulfur, and when they do it tends to be derogatory. Sulfur puts the stink in rotten eggs, threatens us when it spews from the mouths of ...

They call it range anxiety, the fear that an electric vehicle could run out of juice, say somewhere south of Yeehaw Junction on the way to Disney World with three cranky kids aboard.Such scenarios are ...

Transition metal valence state, a key property steering heterogeneous catalysis, has remained underexplored for its role in tuning S cathode kinetics in Li–S batteries. This study reported that CuO ...

A simple structural tweak has dramatically enhanced the colour clarity and stability of heavy metal-free blue quantum dots.

The partnership was signed and unveiled at the Avalon International Airshow outside of Melbourne, where Li-S is an exhibitor.

A RIKEN study shows that squeezing the right amount of potassium ions between the atomic layers of molybdenum disulfide can ...

Adding nano-sized particles of this precious metal to the sulfur-side of the battery stabilizes performance by preventing damaging reactions, likely making the lithium-sulfur chemistry a viable ...

After years of testing, El-Zahab’s team discovered a solution to lengthen the lifespan of lithium-sulfur. All it took was introducing a little metal into the mix. Platinum stabilizes battery ...

When making steel, it reacts with sulfur and helps to increase the metal's resistance to heat. Atomic number 25, atomic weight 54.9380. Phosphorus (P): Phosphorus is a poisonous, nonmetallic ...

The Li-S battery does not contain high-cost and environmentally less sustainable rare metal elements, such as cobalt, nickel, and manganese. A combination of extremely low sulfur cost and ...

First, given the high earth abundance of all components, aluminum, sulfur, NaCl, KCl and AlCl 3, the estimated cell-level cost of our Al–S battery is as low as $8.99 per kWh, which is 12% to 16% ...

Without trying to explain the complicated chemistry that makes batteries work, FIU’s team found that adding a metal catalyst, platinum, made lithium-sulfur last for more charging cycles.
