Alginate-based copolymers as the solid-state electrolyte for Mg battery

The high theoretical volumetric capacity, abundance of magnesium in the earth’s crust, and the relatively good safety features of Mg metal, have drawn great attention to developing Magnesium batteries as a follow-up to the success of Li-ion battery technology. However, the magnesium metal is incompatible with most electrolyte solvents and salts,...

Analysis of the material composition and ionic conductivity of bismuth fluoride and barium tin fluoride and how these factors affect their application in fluoride-ion batteries

In the coming energy transition, the availability of reliable and affordable energy storage will be of vital importance. Battery storage is a large factor in the energy storage sector, and current battery storage is dominated by lithium-based batteries. However, lately, alternatives to lithium have been given renewed attention, due to the...

Elucidation of Enhanced Lithium Conductivity in Nanoporous Ionogel Using Solid State NMR

Nanostructured solid composite electrolyte or nano-SCE, which is composed of an ionic liquid, nanoporous silica, and residuals of immobilized precursor components, shows promising synergistic properties. The ionic conductivity of nano-SCE is in the range of 2–5 mS cm⁻¹, which exceeds the bulk ionic liquid conductivity at ambient...

Mimicking the nuclear pore complex using nanopores

Nuclear pore complexes acts as a gatekeeper for molecular transport between the nucleus and the cytoplasm in eukaryotic cells. The central NPC channel is filled with intrinsically disordered FG domains (phenylalanine (F), glycine (G)) that are responsible for the fascinating selectivity of NPCs, for which the underlying mechanism is still under...
