As global demand for electric vehicles and renewable energy storage surges, so does the need for affordable and sustainable battery technologies. A new study has introduced an innovative solution that ...

and Mary Greenwood Anderson Professor and Study Corresponding Author, Rice University Graphite is used as the anode material in conventional lithium-ion batteries, but the same graphite structure ...

Researchers also stressed that traditional lithium-ion batteries rely on graphite as an anode material. However, the same graphite structure fails when it comes to sodium or potassium. Their atoms are ...

Sodium ions generally exhibit poor reactivity with conventional anode materials like graphite or silicon. However, the hard carbon–tin nano-composite structure maintains excellent stability and fast ...
