The most preferred form of energy storage is metal-ion batteries, like lithium-ion batteries. Because of their great energy density and adaptability, they dominate the markets for portable consumer ...

Scientists have created a novel thermoresponsive polymer by adding divalent cations to polymers and water solvents. They also succeeded in controlling thermoresponsive properties by changing the type ...

Proposed mechanism of Pt dissolution reaction considering the effect of the electrolyte components. In the case of the left figure (Li ions), the diffusion of Pt ions to the offshore (right side in ...

What are Metal Oxide Nanoparticles? Metal oxide nanoparticles are a class of nanomaterials composed of metal cations bonded to oxygen anions, with particle sizes ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers.

It is well known that protonated water forms when an acid dissolves in water, with the characteristic of hydronium ion or hydrated proton (H 3 O+). To date, the existence of the hydrated proton has ...

In November, the production end of sodium-ion battery cathode materials performed impressively, with production up 50% MoM and 54% YoY, indicating a continuous recovery in industry prosperity. In ...

A "charged" metal hydride is still at least 90% metal and, as of today, 7% or so hydrogen. Energy density is not as good as a ...
