New electrode material preserves its volume, solving a major limitation of solid-state batteries
Solid-state batteries (SSBs) offer several potential advantages over current lithium-ion batteries, including improved safety and faster charging. However, SSBs suffer from a problem that limits their durability. When lithium ions are inserted into or extracted from the electrodes, the crystalline structure of the material changes, making the electrode expand or shrink. These repeated changes in… Read more »
Planning permission granted for lithium hydroxide refinery in Teesside, UK
Tees Valley Lithium (TVL), a subsidiary of Alkemy Capital Investments, has received planning permission to build a lithium hydroxide refinery at the Wilton International Chemicals Park in Teesside, UK, following an environmental impact assessment and local consultation over an 18-month period. Construction on the $300-million facility, which will supply the EV battery industry, will begin in 2023, and… Read more »

Researchers develop cobalt-free cathode using high-entropy doping
A team of researchers from UC Irvine and four national laboratories has fabricated a cobalt-free cathode for lithium-ion batteries. The researchers relied on doping using HE-LMNO and magnesium, titanium, manganese, molybdenum and niobium inside the structure to fabricate a high-nickel cathode. “Through a technique we refer to as ‘high-entropy doping,’ we were able to successfully… Read more »
