Safe and efficient energy storage is important for American prosperity and security. With the adoption of both renewable energy sources and electric vehicles on the rise around the world, it is no ...

Conventional processes to fabricate cathodes in lithium batteries require a glue that binds the active material to the substrate, which both takes up space and lowers the battery performance. A ...

A recent study published in Materials Features explores how metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can serve as both templates and precursors in the synthesis of cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

A new cathode implementation for lithium-sulfur batteries uses a hybrid of materials and fabrication techniques, greatly improving weight and energy density specifications versus standard designs.

Researchers have used metal-organic frameworks to engineer higher-performing lithium-ion battery cathodes. Their findings offer improved stability, conductivity, and energy density across several key ...
