Nanobatteries are batteries that are made using nanoscale technologies with particles that are fewer than 100 nanometers (107 metres). These batteries may be nanoscale or use nanotechnology in a macroscale battery.
Indeed, carbon-black, a nanomaterial that has been around for several decades, has been used in lithium-ion batteries since their inception. While carbon-black is used in the electrode, it does not store electrical energy and instead acts as a “passive” conductivity enhancer to improve power capability.
These advantages can be obtained by coating the surface of the electrode with nanoparticles, thus increasing the surface area of the electrode by permitting a larger flow of current between the electrode and the battery’s electrolyte.
The Global Nanoparticle-based battery market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Nanotechnology in Batteries (Nano Battery) Increasing the available power from a battery and lowering the time required to recharge a battery. These advantages are obtained by coating the surface of an electrode with nanoparticles.
This increases the surface area of the electrode, allowing more current to flow between the electrode and the chemicals inside the battery. This technology could improve the efficiency of hybrid vehicles by drastically decreasing the weight of the batteries required to generate appropriate power.
Increasing the shelf life of a battery by utilising nanomaterials to separate liquids in the battery from solid electrodes while there is no demand on the battery. This separation eliminates the low-level discharge that happens in ordinary batteries, thereby increasing the battery’s shelf life.
Beyond lithium-ion batteries, the next step could be lithium sulphur batteries (the cathode contains sulphur), which can store several times as much energy as lithium-ion batteries.
Researchers at Stanford University use cathodes made of carbon nanofibers that encapsulate the sulphur, whereas researchers at LMU Munic and Waterloo University use cathodes composed of mesoporous carbon nanoparticles that contain the sulphur within the nanopores.
Lithium ion batteries using nanoparticle (Nanophosphate) electrodes that exceed electric car safety regulations while enhancing performance.
Lithium ion batteries having nanostructured lithium titanate electrodes that considerably improve charge/discharge capability at subfreezing temperatures while also increasing the upper temperature limit at which the battery stays safe from thermal runaway.
