Researchers from the Nanyang Technology University have developed a new battery that boasts a life span of over 20 years, that’s an extra 18 years more than the current lithium-ion batteries that are found in our smartphones and tablets.
As well as promising to last a whole lot longer, these new lithium-ion batteries are also a lot quicker to charge up. According to the research, they can go from empty to seventy percent charge in just two minutes.
The researchers have been able to create these incredible batteries thanks to a new ground-breaking gel material made from titanium dioxide for the anode. The titanium dioxide gel is converted into tiny nanotubes, which are a thousand times thinner than the diameter of human hair and it’s this that allows the battery to charge up so quickly, as well as lasting longer.
Professor Chen Xiandong, hopes that it will make it to market within the next couple of years.
