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...

Aluminum Coated Silicon Nanoparticles for Li-ion Battery Anodes
Researchers at The George Washington University are developing an innovative material for use in Li-ion battery anodes. The market for Li-ion battery ANODE materials is about $1 billion per year. The market is expected to grow rapidly in the following decades because of electric vehicles. Current Li-ion batteries use mostly graphite anodes. Silicon...
