But sulfur has a tendency to react with itself, producing ions that can float off into the electrolyte. Plus, like any electrode material, it tends to expand in proportion to the amount of lithium ...

One of the more promising materials is sulfur, due to its quality, abundance and low cost. Unfortunately, some of sulfur's reactions with lithium lead to ion loss, and worse, it tends to expand, ...

At high temperatures, magnesium reacts with the nitrogen in ZIF-8, making the carbon structure more stable and robust while creating a diverse pore structure. This structure not only allows for higher ...

Lithium-sulfur batteries have a number of advantages over conventional lithium batteries: they use the abundant raw material sulfur, do not require the critical elements cobalt or nickel, and can ...

While there are some solid dupes already, the future of vegan egg substitutes is bright with scientists getting closer and ...

Previous studies have posited that the mass extinction that wiped the dinosaurs off the face of the Earth was caused by the release of large volumes of sulfur ... a chain reaction of destructive ...

Scientists poring over a sample brought back from the asteroid Bennu have detected amino acids and complex mineral compounds, ...

Spreading crushed stone across farm fields could inexpensively pull CO2 from the air while also increasing yields. But it ...

Calcium benefits the body by supporting bone health and possibly reducing the risk of colon cancer. Calcium may also help improve blood pressure and boost better weight control. Adequate calcium is ...

South Korean researchers have developed an innovative nitrogen-doped porous carbon material to enhance the charging speed of lithium-sulfur batteries significantly. This breakthrough, developed by ...
