New aluminum ion battery lasts 10,000 cycles with minimal capacity loss

According to an article published in the American Chemical Society (ACS) website, researchers have developed a new aluminum-ion (Al-ion) battery that is safer, more sustainable, and more cost-effective than the current battery technologies in the market today. According to the tests done on the Al-ion battery, it retained over 99% of its original capacity despite undergoing 10,000 charge-discharge cycles. This remarkable longevity will potentially change the battery market, especially with the ongoing demand for such efficiency. The research team said the solid-state Al-ion battery had an exceptionally long life, losing only 1% of its original capacity after 10,000 charge-discharge cycles.  It also has enhanced physical and thermal stability, allowing it to endure puncture, being short-circuited, and heated to temperatures up to 200 degrees Celsius without catching fire.

According to an article published in the American Chemical Society (ACS) website, researchers have developed a new aluminum-ion (Al-ion) battery that is safer, more sustainable, and more cost-effective than the current battery technologies in the market today.

According to the tests done on the Al-ion battery, it retained over 99% of its original capacity despite undergoing 10,000 charge-discharge cycles. This remarkable longevity will potentially change the battery market, especially with the ongoing demand for such efficiency.

The research team said the solid-state Al-ion battery had an exceptionally long life, losing only 1% of its original capacity after 10,000 charge-discharge cycles. 

It also has enhanced physical and thermal stability, allowing it to endure puncture, being short-circuited, and heated to temperatures up to 200 degrees Celsius without catching fire.

There is a growing need for reliable storage for renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, and this new battery offers a promising solution.

The current industry standard for batteries is lithium-ion (Li-ion), which is widely used in consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and electric vehicles (EVs). However, Li-ion batteries have safety concerns and limitations, especially for large-scale installations.

The newly developed Al-ion battery, which utilizes solid-state electrolytes, offers a solution to the previous problem of corroding battery components caused by using liquid electrolytes. This solution enhances the battery’s stability and counters corrosion issues.

While this new technology is still in its early stages, the researchers see huge potential applications to improve its already-promising features.

Xiaomi 14 Ultra: SD 8 Gen 3, 120Hz AMOLED, 1-inch sensor, Titanium Edition

Xiaomi has introduced in China its best smartphone to date, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, just a few days before its global debut at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona this February 25. The Xiaomi 14 Ultra looks similar to its predecessor in terms of the layout. But this time, it’s more refined, and Xiaomi is joining in on the Titanium hype as it will come with a Titanium Special Edition model, which uses a grade 5 titanium like the new iPhone 15 Pro series. Oddly, it weighs 229.6g, which is heavier than the black and white (22.4.4g) and Dragon Crystal (229.5g) colors. The Titanium will also exclusively get two-way satellite communication. Another similar but refined feature is the cameras. It still has four 50-megapixel shooters, however, the main one gets an upgraded 1-inch Sony LYT-900 sensor. It also has a wider f/1.63 aperture, which can be dropped to f/4.0. The other three cameras use the same 1/2.5-inch Sony IMX858 sensor. That’s for the ultra-wide lens with a 12mm eq...
