China's water battery has almost double energy capacity than lithium cells
A water-based battery design from China boasts increased safety and double the power, promising advancements in electric vehicle technology.
Interestingly, the researchers say that these new batteries will be twice as energy-dense as traditional lithium-ion options. Moreover, aqueous batteries use water as the solvent for electrolytes, enhancing their safety. Traditional non-aqueous lithium-ion batteries have a high energy density, but their safety is compromised due to the flammable organic electrolytes, a component that allows the battery to charge and discharge, they utilize.
