Calcium-Ion Battery Hits 1,000 Cycles Without Any Lithium
1+ day, 9+ hour ago (1104+ words) The work, led by researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), replaces the liquid electrolyte that normally sabotages calcium with a porous solid framework. The result is not a battery you can buy yet. It is…...
Research breakthrough turns bleach and salt water into a promising battery for blackouts
5+ hour, 10+ min ago (481+ words) Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory made a battery that uses salt water rather than rare metals like lithium and cobalt. The breakthrough discovery could reshape how utilities store electricity for blackouts, peak demand, and renewable energy. Tech Xplore reported…...
Banana Peels Turn Into Catalysts That Boost Bio-Oil From Sewage Sludge
1+ hour, 2+ min ago (52+ words) Qatar-based researchers found that potassium-rich biochar made from banana peels can raise sewage-sludge biocrude yields from about 26 to nearly 38 percent during hydrothermal liquefaction, with potassium availability, not surface area, driving the catalytic effect.

Squeezing Polypropylene Flips Its Insulation From Rubbery to Glassy Conduction
1+ hour, 28+ min ago (58+ words) New high-pressure experiments show that polypropylene undergoes a pressure-induced glass transition between roughly 230 and 290 megapascals, where its free volume collapses and its electrical conduction mechanism shifts from thermally activated hopping to variable-range hopping, reducing steady-state conductivity by about 36 percent. Bethany…...
