[Research News] Safe and Energy-Efficient Quasi-Solid Battery for Electric Vehicles and Devices

Researchers from Doshisha University, Japan, develop a novel quasi-solid-state lithium-ion battery (LIB) with non-flammable solid and liquid electrolytes. The battery has higher ionic conductivity, improved cycle performance, and better safety than conventional LIBs.※

The research team, including Mr. Ryosuke Kido,a second-year doctoral fellow and Takayuki Doi, professor at the Faculty of Science and Engineering Department of Molecular Chemistry and Biochemistry develop a quasi-solid-state lithium-ion battery with improved stability, safety, and longevity.
Electric devices and vehicles offer a sustainable and economical alternative to fuel-driven machines. However, concerns about the safety and longevity of conventional lithium ion batteries (LIBs) persist. A study from Doshisha University aimed to develop a novel flame-retardant quasi-solid-state battery by combining solid and liquid electrolytes. With higher safety and durability and improved performance, the new LIB has the potential to transform the applications of electric vehicles and devices.
