Abstract Common polymer binders are insulators, which significantly diminish the battery performance owing to their low electron mobility. For aqueous sodium–air batteries (SABs) to exhibit reliable performance as energy storage systems, po... Read More
Abstract Designing thick electrodes is essential for applications of lithium-ion batteries that require high energy densities. Introducing a dry electrode process that does not require solvents during electrode fabrication has gained signif... Read More
Abstract The potential of organic electrodes in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is highlighted by their cost-effectiveness and natural abundance. However, the dissolution of the active material in the electrolyte is a major obstacle to their u... Read More
Sodium (Na)-ion batteries are rapidly gaining attention as the next-generation solution to replace lithium-ion batteries due to their lower production cost and similar battery systems. In a significant breakthrough, Professor Hyun-Wook Lee... Read More
Abstract Single-crystalline layered cathodes are often desirable for advanced lithium-ion batteries. However, constrained by the accessible temperature range to prevent lithium evaporation, lattice defects and particle agglomerations, the p... Read More
Abstract Reaction heterogeneity is a crucial factor that influences the design of composite electrodes. Silicon–graphite composites exhibit practical use as anodes, but the complex mechanisms in blended electrodes have not been investigated... Read More
Seawater batteries are eco-friendly electric energy storage systems (ESS) that use natural seawater to produce and store electricity. Besides, when compared to the current lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), it is much less expensive, more enviro... Read More
