Open innovation Challenge is organized in by the Innovation Network for Advanced Materials (INAM)  THE BRIEF There is currently no battery on the market that can do justice to a cordless hair dryer. Either the drying performance is too low or the play time is too short to dry the hair completely.  Therefore, the challenge is […]

Minerals have played a critical role in the rise of many of the clean energy technologies that are widely used today – from wind turbines and solar panels to electric vehicles. But ensuring that these and other key technologies can draw on sufficient mineral supplies to support the acceleration of energy transitions around the world […]

More efficient, longer-lasting batteries are needed to ensure the future of the electric vehicle market. Thanks to Jeff R. Dahn and his Dalhousie University research team, a “million-mile battery” may soon be a reality. Dahn is Tesla’s battery research partner. In “A Wide Range of Testing Results on an Excellent Lithium-Ion Cell Chemistry to be […]

The following article is published by Giorgia Zampardi and Fabio La Mantia in Chemestry Europe – The European Chemical Societies Publishing. The operating potentials of the Li‐ion batteries active materials usually exceed the stability window of the electrolyte, leading to its irreversible reduction or oxidation. Often, as an effect of these side reactions, a surface […]
