Lithium-ion vs lithium-polymer batteries — what's the difference? Here's everything you need to know about these battery technologies.

Lithium-Iron-Phosphate Batteries and Lithium-Ion batteries are used to power a variety of devices, but which battery type is the right one for you?

New smart sensors can help detect dangerous internal failures in lithium-ion batteries before they escalate into fires or explosions, say researchers from the University of Surrey. Lithium-ion ...

Lithium-ion batteries power everything from smartphones to electric vehicles today, but safer and better alternatives are on the horizon.

A team of McGill University researchers, working with colleagues in the United States and South Korea, has developed a new ...

Last month, a rig carrying lithium-ion batteries caught fire, burned for days, spewed toxic gases and shut down a vital shipping highway.

Lithium-ion batteries, which are used to recharge nearly every electric device, are also the source of significant forever chemical pollution.

A solid-state battery replaces the (highly reactive and flammable) lithium-salt liquid electrolyte of a traditional li-ion battery with a solid electrolyte (usually, a ceramic of some kind).

Lithium-ion batteries power most of our devices today, from smartphones to smartwatches. Here's why they can catch fire in rare circumstances.

Researchers developed the first anode-free solid-state battery that’s based on sodium, which is cheaper and more abundant than lithium.

Monash University researchers' new lithium-sulfur battery tech delivers roughly twice the energy density of lithium-ion batteries, as well as speedy charging and discharging – enabling the sort ...
