Ambri Is Still Alive and Chasing Its Liquid Metal Battery Dreams
Among the ranks of lithium-ion alternatives these days, simply staying alive counts as above average. Ambri, the liquid metal battery startup spun out of MIT materials research, has achieved that distinction with flying colors. After halting commercialization to address a technical problem with the seals on its high-temperature battery cells, the company started afresh with a new, lower-cost ...

Why does the lithium ion battery explode?
Lithium battery, I think we should be more rigorous. It should be called lithium-ion secondary battery. Li is the smallest diameter and most active metal on the element periodic table. If you are not sure, you can look at the periodic table “Lithium hydrogen helium beryllium boron, carbon nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon…”. Because Li has these characteristics, it is widely ...

A Heated Discussion on Lead-Acid Batteries
Having just endured one of the hottest Julys on record, many people have been subjected to extremely hot environments lately. And, in some cases, where their bodies have produced or absorbed more heat than they could dissipate, people have been experiencing an abnormally high body temperature due to the failure of their body to thermoregulate. This is called hyperthermia. In fact, as I wrote ...

Why Do We Need Battery Monitoring If We Do Discharge Testing?
Introduction This is a question that is often asked, and the answer is relatively simple. A discharge test measures the capacity of the battery and a battery monitoring system is a maintenance tool. Let me explain further. The Importance of Capacity Testing A lead acid battery is a collection of lead-based electrochemical cells, each with a nominal voltage of 2 Volts, assembled in series to ...

Swollen LiFePO4 Batteries? How To Prevent?
Swollen LiFePO4 batteries are the result of too much current inside a cell of the battery, which causes a build-up of heat and gas. This can be caused by overcharging, deep discharge, overheating to battery or manufacturer defects, or environmental reasons. In this article, we discuss why that happens and how you can prevent that. LiFePO4 battery swelling is one of the important physical ...
