In brief: Chinese researchers have developed a synthetic diamond that is significantly harder and more resilient than those that occur naturally here on Earth. If commercially viable, the new diamond ...

A spray-dried composite containing 15% nano-silicon and just 1% single-walled carbon nanotubes retained 95.3% of its capacity after 100 charge-discharge cycles, compared with 68% for a carbon nanotube ...

Regardless of the cathode chemistry, be it LFP or NCM-based, the majority of commercial batteries rely on graphite as their primary anode material. Battery-grade graphite can be sourced either ...
