Introducing a novel molecular orbital interaction that stabilises cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries
A large international team led by scientists from the Institute for Superconducting and Electronic Materials at the University of Wollongong has verified that the introduction of novel molecular orbital interactions can improve the structural stability of cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries.
Insights into soil fertility can help guide more targeted fertiliser strategies for long-term soil management across Australia
Study revealed that the chemical forms of sulfur change when land is converted from undisturbed soils to cropping soils and forms of sulfur which bind strongly to the soil mineral particles remains far more stable.
