Researchers in China say they have found a way to make manganese ion batteries that will be much less expensive to manufacture.
, we strive to keep our readers informed about new technologies that may signal better batteries for electric vehicles are on the horizon. This month, SK On reportedly is set to introduce two new LFP batteries to counteract concerns that EV drivers have. According to, the South Korean company will soon introduce its Winter Pro batteries that extend charging capacity by 16% and enhance energy density by 19% compared to traditional batteries at -20º C .
Research into manganese batteries is not new, but until this point, their performance has been disappointing. What the researchers have discovered is that using a halogen infused non-aqueous electrolyte — specifically one that incorporates chlorine — makes manganese metal batteries possible that have long life and higher energy density without the dendrite issues that plague manganese batteries that use aqueous electrolytes.
