First nonflammable lithium-ion battery will stop your smartphone, car, and plane from exploding
2014-02-13 18:31:17| Extremetech
Lithium-ion batteries, despite being one of the most important pieces of modern technology, have always had a particularly grievous flaw: They're highly flammable. If you puncture a lithium-ion battery, or you charge/discharge them improperly, you'll usually have a pretty bad fire on your hands -- or worse, if the conditions are just right, an explosion. Most notably, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner was grounded in 2013 due to its lithium-ion battery packs causing electrical fires mid-flight -- but there have also been a fair number of stories about exploding smartphone batteries recently, too. Now, long overdue, researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill say they've built a nonflammable lithium-ion battery.
Origami: The surprisingly simple secret to creating flexible, high-power lithium-ion batteries
2014-02-05 19:11:10| Extremetech
Researchers at Arizona State University have fused the mystical art of origami with modern materials science to create a high-performance, flexible lithium-ion battery. These batteries can be twisted, bent, and scrunched up multiple times, while retaining the same energy capacity and power output. Perhaps most excitingly, though, the researchers tell me that "all standard electrode materials and packaging technologies are used," meaning this tech could theoretically be commercialized in its current form.
