WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Analysis performed by Purdue University’s Vilas Pol Vitality Analysis (ViPER) Group reveals promise for growing high-energy-density rechargeable lithium-metal batteries and addressing the electrochemical oxidation instability of ether-based electrolytes.
The analysis was printed within the Feb. 10 subject of Nature Communications, a peer-reviewed, open entry, scientific journal printed by Nature Portfolio. Zheng Li, a graduate analysis assistant within the Davidson School of Chemical Engineering, was the lead writer.
The main target of the ViPER Group is the design and fabrication of high-capacity supplies for subsequent technology safer lithium-ion, lithium-sulfur, sodium-ion, solid-state and ultralow temperature battery programs.
