新电池中的一匹黑马悄然袭来。 据12月7日报道，由本田研究所的科学家、加州理工学院和美国宇航局喷气推进实验室的研究人员组成的研究团队周四宣布，他们已经开发出新一代氟离子电池，该电池具有10能量密度比锂离子电池高出数倍，温度更稳定，未来有可能取代锂电池成为电动汽车专用电池。 氟离子电池的研究始于几年前，但该团队开发出一种比以往研究更稳定的电池。据了解，氟的原子质量比较低，因此基于氟离子的电池能量密度非常高。如果开发出来，将是锂离子电池的10倍。但固态氟离子电池一般需要在150摄氏度以上的高温下工作，否则可能无法导电。液态氟离子电池虽然可以在常温下工作，但由于负极钝化等原因，难以进行充放电循环。这项研究克服了温度限制，使氟离子电池能够在室温下工作，这是一个突破。 本田研究所首席科学家 Christopher Brooks 博士说，“氟离子电池提供了一种很有前途的新型电池化学物质，其能量密度是现有锂离子电池的 10 倍。与锂离子电池不同，后者没有安全性过热带来的风险，而获取锂离子电池原材料对环境的影响远低于提取锂和钴的过程。” 不仅电池密度高，新型氟离子电池也更加环保。据研究人员介绍，氟离子电池的原材料对环境的影响较小，因此更加环保。 氟离子电池，你期待吗？
With driverless cars already on the horizon, you may soon get used to this new concept of future mobility. But what you may not have realized is that these cars could create a whole new market and make transportation safer, greener, and more efficient. The “Mobile Open Blockchain Initiative” (MOBI) is a non-profit organization whose […]
Many friends in the industry are discussing that the electrical architecture and integrated form of Tesla Model 3 are very different from traditional cars. Friends who are inclined to outside the industry think that Tesla is 1-2 generations ahead of traditional companies. In fact, we can discuss in detail, How did this feeling come about? […]
Tesla will hold a self-driving investor day event on the 22nd of this month, and hopes that it can provide some details of its own research and development work on self-driving at this event; The realization of fully autonomous driving has enormous financial implications, making certain technical issues all the more important; For investors, the […]
Custom car platform Zoox hails from Foster City, California. Its chief executive, Aicha Evans, spoke in a keynote address about the challenges self-driving cars face and suggested they could have a bright future if overcome. It’s also the first time she’s detailed some of the hardware and software stack for Zoox’s custom car platform, which […]
“Humans’ desire for information is like primitive people’s desire for food. The calories of food can satisfy the demand, and information is used to fill the brain.” As the most convenient access to information, smartphones have become a necessary item for modern people’s work and life. In a sense, smartphones have become an “organ” for […]
This August, the media focused on Weilai and Li Bin. In just a few days, the company’s co-founder resigned, a large number of layoffs, the closure of the Silicon Valley office (rumours have been refuted), return to the Science and Technology Innovation Board (rumors have been refuted), and the split of the autonomous driving business […]
