Graphene-COF Interface Extends Lithium-Sulfur Battery Lifespan to 1,000 Cycles, Researchers Report
Researchers in Japan have developed a hybrid interface combining graphene and a covalent organic framework (COF) that suppresses the polysulfide shuttle effect in lithium-sulfur batteries, according to a study published in a peer-reviewed journal. The interface enables the batteries to retain capacity for more than 1,000 charge-discharge cycles, the report stated. Lithium-sulfur batteries are among […]

UC San Diego engineers develop method to upcycle spent EV battery material into higher-performance cathode
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a method to upcycle cathodes from used lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries into lithium manganese iron phosphate (LMFP), which stores more energy, according to a study published in Joule. The process transforms existing battery material into a higher-value product instead of breaking it down into […]
