Both researchers and electric car manufacturers consider solid-state batteries to be the super battery of the future. Most recently, Toyota has announced that they expect to launch an electric car with a lithium solid-state battery in 2027-28.
The structural battery developed at Chalmers is made from composite material and uses carbon fibers for both positive and negative electrodes. In previous iterations of the battery, the core of the positive electrode was made from aluminum foil. On this occasion, the researchers coated the carbon fibers with lithium iron phosphate (LFP).
Research is also being conducted into sodium-ion, aluminium-ion, and magnesium-ion batteries. In a solid-state battery, the ions do not travel through an electrolyte liquid, but rather an ultra-thin, solid material called a solid-state electrolyte. This material can be made of lithium, sodium, potassium, in the form of oxides and sulfides.
The researchers behind the new technology say that it could one day allow for “super batteries” that use potassium and sodium silicates instead of the lithium of today. Those rock silicates can be found in garden stones.
At DTU, researcher Mohamad Khoshkalam has invented a material that has the potential to replace lithium in tomorrow’s super battery: solid-state batteries based on potassium and sodium silicates. These are rock silicates, which are some of the most common minerals in the Earth’s crust.
