| Greatly improved Li-ion battery – much higher “energy storage capacity” & “charging rates”
                
                The problem: most batteries use graphite as anode material. Graphite has poor energy storage capacity.
The solution: Researchers at the Geoerge Washington University (GW) have developed a new type of composite materials based on HCNS (hollow carbon nanospheres), which have the ability to charge at much higher rates and greatly exceed the energy-storage...
