PNNL claims that the new electrolyte developed by it can double the service life of the battery by 7 times and increase the cruising range by 2-3 times. This performance has exceeded the scope of the conventional electrolyte, but it is not known whether the performance of the matched cathode material can be matched. Follow in its footsteps.

　　According to foreign media reports, the Northwest Pacific National Laboratory PNNL has developed a new battery electrolyte formulation designed to extend the service life and battery capacity of the battery, thereby increasing the range of electric vehicles.

　　The new battery electrolyte can withstand 700 charge and discharge processes, which can increase the battery's service life by 7 times, thereby increasing the range of electric vehicles by 2-3 times. PNNL focuses on the current challenges and technical problems of lithium-ion batteries.

　　Comment: The key to the improvement of battery energy density and cycle life lies in the optimization of the performance of the cathode material. Currently, major battery companies are preparing for research and development of new-generation battery technologies including solid-state batteries and graphene batteries.
