A new, high-purity 13 C-labeled graphene mesosponge (13 C-GMS) could be a sturdy scaffold for loading polymorphic ruthenium (Ru) catalysts, and has also helped determine the causes of battery ...

Video shared with WRAL News shows the moment a lithium-ion battery caught fire inside a home, feet away from a dog. The dog, Colton, set off the fire after chewing on a battery-powered device. Other ...

A new battery design could soon make phones last longer, drones fly farther, and electric cars drive longer distances. On Wednesday, researchers at the University of Florida, Purdue University, and ...

Longer-lasting phones, lighter drones, electric cars that drive farther. These are just some of the possibilities thanks to a new battery separator design from University of Florida researchers and ...

The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) researchers, in a new study using a machine learning model and amorphous materials, have built batteries with a higher energy density. While Lithium-ion ...

The FAA fined three companies (Mobile Sentrix, Mokwheel Bikes, and LG Energy Solution) a total of over $300,000 for shipping lithium-ion batteries that were undeclared, improperly packaged, and/or ...

FIRST ON FOX: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is expanding its crackdown on Chinese imports suspected of using forced labor in their supply chains. Products like steel, copper, lithium, ...

This schematic illustrates how atomic-scale Ni catalysts embedded in a porous graphene matrix address key challenges in Li–O₂ batteries. By simultaneously enhancing cathode reaction kinetics and ...

In Paris last year the Curie-Joliots bombarded a piece of lithium with alpha particles, produced neutrons and boron atoms. The scientific world at that time was engrossed with neutrons whose existence ...
