    Expanding the Use of Silicon in Batteries, By Preventing Electrodes From Expanding

    February 28, 2019

    Silicon anodes are generally viewed as the next development in lithium-ion battery technology. Research from Drexel University and Trinity College in Ireland now suggests that an even greater improvement could be in line if the silicon is fortified with a special type of material called MXene.

  • Expanding the Use of Silicon in Batteries, By Preventing Electrodes From Expanding

    February 21, 2019

    Silicon anodes are generally viewed as the next development in lithium-ion battery technology. Silicon’s ability to absorb more charge translates to longer battery life and smaller batteries, if researchers can check the physical expansion of the silicon that comes with charging. Research from Drexel University and the Trinity College in Ireland, suggests that adding MXene ink to the silicon electrode-making process would do just that.
