Tech News 1: Breakthrough in cathode chemistry clears the path for Li-S batteries' commercial viability

[bob_turner]

America's growing demand for electric vehicles has shed light on the significant challenge of sustainably sourcing the battery technology necessary for the broad shift to renewable electric and away from fossil fuels. In hopes of making batteries that not only perform better than those currently used in EVs, but also are made from readily available materials, a group of Drexel University chemical engineers have found a way to introduce sulfur into lithium-ion batteries—with astounding results.
