Material and engineering researchers at East China’s Zhejiang University unveiled a “super” aluminum-graphene battery that can be fully charged in 5 seconds and then last for two hours.
They claim to have developed a novel aluminum-graphene battery that is more cold-resistant, can work in temperatures ranging from -40 C to 120 C and is less flammable.
The battery, which has a positive pole made up of graphene thin film and a negative pole of aluminum, can retain 91 percent of its capacity even after 250,000 charge/discharge circles, a marked improvement compared with the lithium battery.
>graphene It will take ages before they can start producing them that shit is tricky to manufacture
Jason Rodriguez
>They claim kek
Caleb Watson
>last for two hours.
Am I supposed to be impressed?
James Garcia
wtf you said Elon Musk would revolutionize battery technology
Jeremiah Reed
It's literally made by the ton for pencils.
Ayden Robinson
No, depends on the type of graphene you produce.
Bentley Hughes
>2 hours
INTO THE TRASH IT GOES
Alexander Fisher
Who the fuck cares about charging speed, I'd rather carry no charger at all.
Aiden Gomez
Other companies have already unveiled similar graphene battery designs. Samsung for one. It's very likely that China has once again simply copied from other countries that it's spying on.
Jacob Fisher
Every fucking year someone develops a new super battery

We already have this. Its a supercapacitor, you can charge it in 5 seconds and it will light an led for two hours
Grayson Ortiz
gee it's almost like technology isn't stagnating, we're just really fucking impatient
Christopher Jenkins
Any improvement in battery tech very welcome
Colton Clark
mmmm bacon
Asher Jenkins
Nice can't wait to have have a phone with this chinkshit battery exploding in my face
James Wright
graphene not graphite you fucking mongol
Bentley Sanchez
Graphite is made of layers of graphene.
Jason Sanders
more like super explosion in your hands
Kayden Roberts
They're lazy, which is why Mao needed to slaughter them to get them to work. Different from the diligent and expectation bound japs or ultra-greedy and motive-driven koreans
Kayden Lee
Yes but we can't really build anything layer by layer from graphite ourselves yet.
Gabriel Howard
>Chinese invention No such thing in the modern age.
Wyatt Lewis
link or GTFO
Cooper Lewis
Just give an army of chinks sheets of paper and pencils, tell them to cover the entire thing in an even layer of graphite and peel it off from the paper duh it's like you people don't know how to exploit 3rd worlders
Jackson Gutierrez
You racists are so insecure. It's embarrassing to read
Wyatt Miller
>5sec charge time >2 hour run time
I think you should be. If harnessed for EVs it would revolutionize the industry by finally giving them a range close to ICE vehicles.
Jonathan Ortiz
britbongs and portubobos are still mad chinks held porcelain, black powder and silk from them for 500 years.
add another 500 on top of that all I can say is damn you fuckers know how to hold a grudge.
Benjamin Adams
There is a god damn battery break through every month
What ends up happening is that this stuff for various reasons almost never takes it to consumer products.
Its either not cost effective or not scaleable to be mass produced or some combination of both.
we showed them playing cards and tea to the brits fy rest of the world

And this is why we can not have fast charging.
Owen Walker
>plug in 5 cables as thick as an elephants dong >car is then lowered into cooling gel >5 second charging initiated.
Luis Butler
Just outsource to tennis racket manufacturers.
Benjamin Lopez
>CHINA DOES THING
Elijah Young
A 2 hour battery would be perfect for storing excess wind and solar energy
Jeremiah Thompson
this is good news. Apple wont have to throttle its iphones anymore
Robert Jackson
This. Chink batteries are literally the worst batteries in the world by design. They would never design something valuable because their business is all about exploitation and ripping off americans with the cheapest material they can get away with.
Ian Lee
Isn't the battery 400V? Shouldn't a 2/0 gauge wire work fine?
Easton Davis
>China invents capacitor WEW LAD They tried this before. Anyone here remember the capacitor plague?
Jaxon Johnson
>mfw the western world just laughs meanwhile china, russia and india develop into the new superpowers

It's 100 KILOwatthr
Kayden Cruz
> Russia hahaha, sad
> India nervous laughter
> China we are done for, Europeans will literally become slaves for the Chinese
Christopher Mitchell
India will never be a superpower. Russia might be if they start killing millions of people again. China already is a superpower.
Brayden Brown
>Russia superpower >launches missile worth 50mil into the sea
>India superpower by 2020 >lowest average sanitary and hygiene
>China superpower Do you need to get reminded that China isn't a democracy?
Jack Wright
ill believe it when i see it
Carter Carter
China invented Japan before the west even knew what a Japan was
Hudson Flores
Chinese invented fucking kanji. You simply connect it to HV line, current is low and wires are not hot. Battery is hot, but is ok.
Aaron Mitchell
If it is true - batteries would be cheap. But looking in periodic table Al is too close to C, so it will not work I guess.
>The energy density of AIB (40 to 60 Wh kg−1) is much lower than that of commercialized Li-ion battery (150 to 250 Wh kg−1) meh... >its power density (3 to 30 kW kg−1) and cycle life (200 to 25,000 cycles) are obviously lower than those of advanced supercapacitors (30 to 100 kW kg−1 and 10,000 to 100,000 cycles) meh...
Lead-acid battery is still the best and most environment-friendly.
>But industry expert Zheng Jiatu, deputy managing director of the China Electric Vehicle Charging Technology and Industry Alliance, said he is doubtful of the results published by the team.
>“These figures must be read with some caution,” Zheng said, noting that even testing 250,000 charge/discharge cycles would itself take a very long time.
>“The announced results are more likely the results of a simulated data model, rather than results from prototype testing,” Zheng said.
Jonathan Brooks
Yeah that's cool and all but how's the energy density in J/volume and J/weight?
Also what is the nominal voltage of a single cell Can it be mass pruced? (Since graphene is a pain) and if it can, will it be economically viable?
How is FlowCell technology going?
Levi Sullivan
Fucking brainlet niggers, should have paid attention to chemistry class. It's actually VERY impressive, bordering on bullshit.
2hours=3600*2=7200sec 7200:5 1440:1
Outrageous charge/discharge ratio. If true, the longevity could probably be improved with additional cells.
Julian Wilson
Didn't some dude discovered you can synthetize it using a blender and hardware store items a couple of years ago?
Liam Brooks
>it's another """revolutionary""" (((graphene))) based battery technology that you will never ever hear about again episode
Isaiah Cruz
people have just been scammed by chinese companies too many times, nobody believes anything they say anymore
>something about crying wolf
Adrian Gutierrez
Yes, blender and lightscribe DVD etcher. There are tons of videos on homemade ghetto graphene supercapacitors on YT. Somehow no actual manufacturer takes any interest in them.
There is a British guy (Robert Murray-Smith) who has made a big graphene supercap and put it in his electric scooter. Runs great.
Nicholas King
Russia was is border-line super power and it would if it wasn't because of those meddling NATO/UN kids.
Charles Harris
>Al is too close to C so it will not work Whut ?
Lincoln Johnson
Again?

Only post battery threads when they're available on Ali express.otherwise shut the fuck up

Koreans invented Japan though. Japanese people originated on the korean peninsula
Oliver Cox
And Koreans originated in China. And Chinese originated in India. Indians originated in Iran. Iranians originated in Egypt. Egyptians originated in Sudan. #WeAreAllBlacks
Bentley Fisher
Japan was garbage until Admiral Perry taught them to subjugate lesser humans. Perry did so well we had to nuke Japan twice to calm them down.
