American researchers invent battery preservation technology

According to foreign media reports, US researchers recently developed a revolutionary battery “preservation” design that can significantly increase battery power and extend battery life to decades.

It is reported that the research results of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee have been published in the well-known Journal of the American Chemical Society. The laboratory said, "I have created an unprecedented energy application prospect for the battery field and enabled it to retain the maximum amount of power for up to 50 years."

"What if a battery can be used for 30-50 years? Our research has opened up a window of opportunity for this possibility through a completely new design mechanism," said Chengdu Liang, a researcher at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

It is reported that researchers have achieved a “50-year lifespan” by changing the internal design principles of traditional batteries and adopting ion conduction technology boldly.

For the future application of this technology, industry analysts are optimistic about this. One of the simplest examples is that patients who have a cardiac pacemaker implanted in their body will undergo surgery again to replace their parts because of their battery life. However, after this technology matures, such patients may no longer need to lie on the operating table because of battery problems.

At the same time, the emergence of this technology is also of great significance to the wearable devices that are in a period of rapid development. Because those who often need the user to take off, and need a daily charge of sports wristbands or smart watches, smart glasses, I am afraid it is difficult to get the recognition of most consumers.

According to Chengdu Liang, the current battery technology has also attracted the attention of many business investors.

“This research finding confirms the feasibility of conceptual research, and many private commercial companies have already contacted us in this regard. If the commercialization plan goes well, this technology is expected to become a reality in the coming years. "Chengdu Liang said finally.
