Discovery offers path to safer, solid-state sodium rechargeable batteries

A safer, greener, and inexpensive rechargeable battery for powering electric vehicles, mobile phones and many other applications could be a step closer following a breakthrough discovery by NUS researchers.

The team led by Assistant Professor Pieremanuele (Piero) Canepa (Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the NUS College of Design and Engineering) has identified a new sodium-ion-based solid electrolyte composition that may enable ultrafast battery charge and discharge.

Their research was recently published in Nature Communications.
