Scientists Use Multivalent Cation Additives To Rid Rechargeable Batteries Of A Common Pitfall

Researchers at Tohoku University have unearthed a means to stabilize lithium or sodium depositions in rechargeable batteries, helping keep their metallic structure intact. The discovery prevents potential battery degradation and short circuiting, and paves the way for higher energy-density metal-anode batteries.

Yes, innovation around battery technology is almost weekly at this stage, which shows how much research is going into them as their demand has grown so dramatically in the market. No matter what, we’ll be seeing lots of incremental improvements in safety, capacity and usage over the next few years.
