Sodium-ion Battery Technology
Recently, a team of scientists from the University of Houston has developed a homogeneous glassy electrolyte that makes it more viable to produce sodium ion-based batteries commercially.
The study significantly boosts the scope of development of sodium-based battery technology as a viable alternative to lithium-based ones.
About Sodium-ion Battery
- A sodium-ion (Na+) battery is a kind of rechargeable battery which primarily relies on the movement of sodium ions between the positive and negative electrodes to work.
- Its working principle and cell construction are almost identical with those of lithium-ion batteries.
Key Highlights
- Grid-level Energy Storage Systems: The study found that ambient temperature ....
