Japanese company Eamex announced that its engineers managed to develop a technology that can significantly extend the life of Li-Ion batteries. According to available data, the technology will bring the number of cycles to 10 000, which will provide up to 20 years of operation. The basic idea is to stabilize the electrodes and prevent the thinning of the layer of tin, which will provide an opportunity to increase the number of charge / discharge cycles the battery. In today’s batteries are used negative electrodes made of gum-coated tin and restraint lithium ions emanating from the positive electrode. The positive electrode is made of silicon and tin, and the emission of ions degrades.
According to the Eamex, they are ready to release the first samples of batteries already this year.
