They are key components of laptops and smartphones as well as vehicles. <\/p>\n<p>But automotive lithium-ion batteries have drawbacks: Charging time can be significant, they contain flammable contents that can ignite in a crash and they can freeze in very low temperatures. Researchers for years have tested superior materials such as polymers and ceramics that remedy these problems.<\/p>\n<p>QuantumScape&#8217;s answer is the lithium-metal battery. A dry ceramic separator takes the place of the liquid electrolyte and allows for more efficient transfer of energy as ions traverse paths. The battery is not 100 percent solid-sate\u2014there is a gel component in the new battery\u2014but it <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ears to have eliminated the drawbacks of the liquid electrolyte. It works in cold weather without freezing and suppresses growth of electrolyte dendrites that hamper lithium-ion battery efficiency.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"mb-4\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Solid-state automotive battery could transform EV industry\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\/?v=azACL3lLMo8\"\/><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Solid-state automotive battery could transform EV industry\"\/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2020-12-09T11:52:16-05:00\"\/><meta itemprop=\"embedUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/azACL3lLMo8\"\/><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/azACL3lLMo8\/maxresdefault.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n             <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"What are Solid-State Lithium-Metal Batteries?\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/azACL3lLMo8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Test results have been impressive. Lithium-metal powered vehicles can travel 80 percent farther than those equipped with lithium-ion batteries. They also are longer lasting: they maintain more than 80 percent of capacity after 800 charging cycles, far greater than current batteries. A company blog states this could translate into batteries that will power a vehicle &#8220;hundreds of thousands of miles&#8221; before needing replacement. <\/p>\n<p>And it has a rapid charging time, up to 80 percent of battery capacity in just 15 minutes. (Is the recurrence of the number &#8220;8&#8221; in these specifications a subliminal nod to the potentially lucrative China market, where &#8220;8&#8221; is considered a lucky number?)<br \/>\n                                            <!-- Google middle Adsense block --><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We think that we&#8217;re the first to solve solid-state,&#8221; Jagdeep Singh, founder and CEO of QuantumScape, said recently. &#8220;We don&#8217;t see anything on the horizon that&#8217;s going to be close to what we&#8217;re doing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But QuantumScape is not alone in the pursuit of a better battery. China&#8217;s battery manufacturing giant CATL, LG Chem, Samsung, Panasonic and Tesla have all joined in the race. Toyota was slated to unveil a solid-state cell at this year&#8217;s Tokyo Olympics before the pandemic scuttled those plans.<\/p>\n<p>A startup called Solid Power has begun manufacture of a similar type battery with a sulfide-based electrolyte that is highly conductive. Ford, BMW and Hyundai have joined in the effort.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"mb-4\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Solid-state automotive battery could transform EV industry\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\/?v=dGnPSkXKb0I\"\/><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Solid-state automotive battery could transform EV industry\"\/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2020-12-09T11:52:24-05:00\"\/><meta itemprop=\"embedUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dGnPSkXKb0I\"\/><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/dGnPSkXKb0I\/maxresdefault.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n             <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dGnPSkXKb0I\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dGnPSkXKb0I<\/a><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>QuantumScape has not revealed what its electrolyte is composed of, but MIG <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Technology<\/a> Review reports some experts believe it is an oxide known as LLZO, seen as a promising electrolyte candidate for solid sate batteries.<\/p>\n<p>QuantumScape still faces challenges. Tests on the new battery have been on single-layer cells. The final version of the battery will require up to 100 layers, and as the thickness increases, so do potential roadblocks and problems.<\/p>\n<p>But the concept has been greeted with enthusiasm.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The hardest part about making a working solid-state battery is the need to simultaneously meet the requirements of high energy density, fast charge, long cycle life and wide temperature-range operation,&#8221; said 2019 Nobel Prize winner Stan Whittingham, a co-inventor of the lithium ion battery. &#8220;This data shows QuantumScape&#8217;s cells meet all of these requirements, something that has never before been reported. If QuantumScape can get this technology into mass production, it holds the potential to transform the industry.&#8221;\n                                                                                                                        <\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<div class=\"article-main__explore my-4 d-print-none\">\n<p>                                            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text-medium text-info mt-2 d-inline-block\" href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2020-08-thin-layer-battery-cold.html\">Thin layer protects battery, allows cold charging<\/a>\n                                        <\/div>\n<hr class=\"mb-4\"\/>\n<div class=\"article-main__more p-4\">\n                                                                                                <strong>More information:<\/strong><br \/>\n                                                <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.quantumscape.com\/\">www.quantumscape.com\/<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"article-main__note mt-4\">\n                                                \u00a9 2020 <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/sciencee\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"5\" title=\"Science\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Science<\/a> X Network<\/p>\n<p>                                        <!-- print only --><\/p>\n<div class=\"d-none d-print-block\">\n<p>                                                 <strong>Citation<\/strong>:<br \/>\n                                                 Solid-state automotive battery could transform EV industry (2020, December  9)<br \/>\n                                                 retrieved 10 December 2020<br \/>\n                                                 from https:\/\/techxplore.com\/<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>\/2020-12-solid-state-automotive-battery-ev-industry.html<\/p>\n<p>                                            This document is subject to copyright.
