Canada found that silicon nanoparticles can increase the storage capacity of lithium batteries by 10 times

The silicon materials has extensive reserves. If Si and Li are combined in a Li4.4Si, their theoretical specific capacities can exceed 4200mAh/g. That is more than the amount of lithium-ion that is absorbed by current-generation lithium batteries. Therefore, it is thought to have the potential to be used for the… Continue reading
