A new solvent-based technique could change how lithium is extracted from brines, potentially making the process faster, ...

We’re all used to it by now, but I’d just like to reflect on how insanely power-packed lithium ion batteries are, and ...

Much of the world’s lithium occurs in salty waters with fundamentally different chemistry than other naturally saline waters like the ocean, according to a study published on May 23 in Science ...

As the owner of a 3-year-old laptop, I feel the finite lifespan of lithium batteries acutely. It’s still a great machine, but the cost of a battery replacement would take me a significant way down the ...

Lithium dendrites, i.e. tiny crystalline thorns that grow off of lithium-ion battery anodes during charging, have been a ...

Researchers at the University of Brescia show how microwave technology enables a greener pathway for lithium recovery from ...

In chemistry, some problems are so persistent that they are nicknamed “forever.” Perfluoroalkyl and ...

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are primarily thought of as environmental pollutants, and most research ...

Sand, salt, iron, copper, oil and lithium — these foundational materials are literally what the modern world is built on. Without sand for glass, say goodbye to our fiber optic internet. No copper ...

There is greater demand placed on data centers than ever before. Could lithium-ion technologies hold the answer to keeping the industry moving forward?
