Battery Technology Takes a Step Forward

Article excerpt

A battery liquid helps key reactions occur more easily, improving performance and bringing fluoride-based batteries closer to energy storage applications. Researchers from Japan’s Institute for Molecular Science and Thailand’s Khon Kaen University have developed a new electrolyte for fluoride shuttle batteries that enables reversible fluorination and defluorination reactions using potassium tetrafluoroborate (KBF4), a low-cost and […]
