Week 6 Session 13

Two new trends in battery system field:

1) Nanobolt lithium tungten batteries:

The tungsten and carbon multi-layered nanotubes that bond to the copper anode substrate and bulid up a nano structure. That forms huge surface for more ions to attach to during recharge and discharge cycles. It makes recharging faster and stores more energy.

2)Zinc-manganese oxide batteries:

The chemical conversion reaction in a zinc-manganese oxide battery. If that process can be controlled,it can increase energy density in conventional batteries without increasing cost. that makes the battery a possible alternative to lithium ion and lead acid batteries.
