Researchers at the University of Surrey have developed a new sodium-ion battery that stores twice the charge of existing ...

What if we could create metal made of water? Pure water itself is almost perfect as an insulator. Water found naturally in the world is a perfect conduit for electricity due to the impurities and ...

Sodium-ion batteries may be the answer to the future of sustainable energy storage and could be used to make drinking water ...
