- Tests show 92 per cent capacity retention in lithium batteries with new gel polymer electrolyte filling, according to recently published study
- GPEs offer one option in quest to resolve lithium-ion battery explosion and fire safety issues, lead researcher says
The technology, which replaces the battery’s chemical solution with a new substance of gel-like consistency, could be scaled up to find immediate application in China’s booming electric vehicles industry, the researchers said.
