Chemistry tweaks make for rechargeable zinc-air batteries

Zinc-air batteries are great little energy storage devices, but they have plenty of room for improvement – for one, they’re not usually rechargeable. Now a team led by the University of Münster has developed a new zinc-air chemistry that makes this typ… Continue reading Chemistry tweaks make for rechargeable zinc-air batteries

Experimental organic proton battery charges in minutes

Researchers at Uppsala University have developed a new type of experimental proton battery that’s built with entirely organic components, making it much more environmentally friendly than most. On top of that, it can also be charged in a matter of minu… Continue reading Experimental organic proton battery charges in minutes
