Scientists have achieved a monumental breakthrough in the realm of potassium-based batteries by developing a dendrite-free metallic-potassium anode. This innovation stabilizes the anode, which is ...

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 ...

Researchers demonstrate how they can overcome a persistent challenge known as dendrites to create a metal battery that performs nearly as well as a lithium-ion battery, but relies on potassium -- a ...

In a mind-bending experiment, scientists transformed purified water into metal for a few fleeting seconds, thus allowing the liquid to conduct electricity. Unfiltered water can already conduct ...

A battery with a potassium cathode and anode could compete with lithium-ion. The potassium battery also self heals by combining gentle heat with high surface mobility. A metal battery in general, ...
