Chinese scientists fabricate wearable batteries that can charge cellphone

STORY: Chinese scientists fabricate wearable batteries that can charge cellphone SHOOTING TIME: April 22, 2024 DATELINE: April 27, 2024 LENGTH: 0:01:06 LOCATION: SHANGHAI, China CATEGORY: SCIENCE/TECHNOLOGY SHOTLIST: 1. various of researchers 2. SOUNDBITE (Chinese): PENG HUISHENG, Professor at Fudan University's Department of Macromolecular Science and Institute for Fiber Electronic Materials and Devices STORYLINE: A team of Chinese scientists has developed a soft and breathable piece of clothing that can not only store energy but also power personal electronic devices such as smartphones and watches. Replacing conventional liquid electrolytes with polymer gel electrolytes is a highly effective strategy for enhancing the flexibility of wearable batteries. However, the inadequate wetting at the interface between the polymer gel electrolyte and the electrode degrades the electrochemical performance, particularly when the battery undergoes deformation. The researchers from Fudan University have cr

National Institute for Materials Science Launches Smart Lab Initiative

In addition to improving the efficiency of research, the project will promote the development of materials through materials informatics (MI), which applies AI to the development of materials. In order to maintain international competitiveness amidst a shortage of research personnel, innovative methods to improve the efficiency of experiments will be necessary. (6G), which is expected to be introduced around the year 30, as the subject of the Smart Lab. In the case of the development of high energy density batteries, we will search for new electrolytes that will improve the performance of storage batteries. The Smart Lab will automate processes such as the synthesis and evaluation of samples that are candidates for electrolytes, and the proposal of optimal electrolyte compositions based on experimental results.

NTT's Transparent Rechargeable Battery

NTT's Transparent Rechargeable Battery

NTT has developed a "see-through rechargeable battery" (photo) that delivers about 50 times more power than conventional batteries. The average transmittance, which was previously about the same as that of sunglasses, has been tripled to 69%, equivalent to that of window glass. By gelatinizing the electrolyte, the average voltage was increased from 1.7 volts to 2.5 volts, which led to the improvement in transmittance. It also made it possible to deposit the film over a larger area, resulting in a larger battery. Six of the new batteries have the performance of one button battery. The company expects to use the new batteries for transparent signboards in tourist spots that post information without spoiling the scenery, windowpanes that can store electricity obtained from solar power generation, and lenses for smart glasses. In the future, the company aims to add flexible performance that can be bent. Photo taken on November 11, 2019, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images

Murata Manufacturing's all-individual battery that has started shipping samples

Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will startmass production of all solid-state batteries using ceramics technology within fiscal 2019. The company will build a new mass production line in the battery-related production building at Yasu Plant (Yasu City, Shiga Prefecture). The production capacity is planned to be 100,000 units per month for the time being. The capacity of the prototype is more than 10 milliampere hours, 100 times higher than that of other companies' products, the highest level in the industry, and the company will accelerate its expansion into energy-related markets, including the lithium-ion rechargeable battery business acquired from Sony in 2005. The company will mass-produce surface-mounted "ceramic all-solid-state batteries" that use ceramic materials as the electrolyte. In addition to converting its manufacturing facilities for multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs)(Photo taken on June 13, 2019, location unknown, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images)
