This study models how India’s expanding electric vehicle fleet could change demand for and requirements of lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese, and graphite through 2060 under several deployment and battery-chemistry scenarios. Under the baseline scenario, EV battery demand reaches about 965 GWh by 2060, while recycling could reduce cumulative lithium demand by up to 54% and offset much of the demand for cobalt and manganese.
Energy-efficient, reliable, modular: at EuroBLECH from 20 to 23 October, technotrans will present its comprehensive portfolio of spray lubrication systems for stamping and forming technology.
A research team led by Professor Boseok Kang of the SKKU Advanced Institute of Nanotechnology (SAINT), Department of Nano Engineering, and Department of Semiconductor Convergence Engineering has raised the doping efficiency of electrically conductive plastics (conducting polymers) to a world-class level by attaching specific molecules to them, and has for the first time elucidated the underlying operating mechanism.
Carbon fiber is a key component in automobile manufacturing, aerospace engineering and energy infrastructure, but it mostly relies on petroleum-derived products, which can be expensive and contribute to carbon emissions.
A review in Advanced Materials examines how biointegrated batteries are being engineered to combine energy storage with electrical stimulation, electrochemical therapy, and controlled drug delivery. The authors highlight how electrode chemistry, flexible and biodegradable materials, hydrogels, conductive polymers, and device architecture determine how these batteries interact with tissue and generate therapeutic outputs.
As offshore wind, distributed generation and cross-border electricity exchange expand, modern grids must move power over longer distances while serving more varied local needs.
When developing new technologies, engineers do their best to keep it simple. Adding layers of complication can lead to more things that could potentially go wrong.
Northwestern University researchers used a Birch reduction-inspired solvated electron solution to relithiate chemically degraded NMC532 within seconds at room temperature, followed by a three-hour oxygen anneal to restore its near-surface structure. In lithium-metal half cells, the regenerated cathode delivered 159.49 mAh/g and retained 94.10% of its capacity after 100 cycles, although the researchers tested laboratory-generated model end-of-life material rather than cathodes recovered from retired batteries.
A pioneering ultra-low carbon brick made from near 100% recycled construction waste has been used to create the striking colorful façade of one of London's most anticipated new cultural buildings.
Researchers reviewed advances in alloy-based anodes for rechargeable magnesium batteries, comparing Mg-free hosts, Mg-containing alloys and alloy-derived surface modifications as routes to improve reversibility, Mg²? transport and electrolyte compatibility. The review finds that material structure and interphase chemistry strongly influence performance, while higher alloy-anode operating potentials can reduce full-cell voltage, and practical validation remains a major research priority.
