New development could help deliver improved potassium-ion batteries
Published: 1 November 2024
An international team of researchers led by chemists from the University of Glasgow and battery testing experts at Helmholtz Institute Ulm have implemented a material made from chromium and selenium in a potassium-ion battery. The discovery brings the batteries a step closer to becoming a viable alternative to lithium-ion systems, thanks to the abundant availability of potassium and its advantageous material properties like rapid charging.
