Clemson Researchers Develop Improvements to Aluminium-Ion Battery Technology

Clemson Researchers Develop Improvements to Aluminium-Ion Battery Technology

Researchers at Clemson University say they have made progress in improving the performance of aluminium-ion batteries. Though aluminium-ion batteries are less toxic and more efficient than lithium-ion batteries, past attempts at making workable prototypes of an aluminium-ion battery have failed to produce a model that performs as well as a similar lithium-ion battery. Thus, consumers […]
