Researchers at PNNL have come up with a novel way to use silicon as an energy storage ingredient, replacing the graphite in electrodes. Silicon can hold 10 times the electrical charge per gram, but it comes with problems of its own.

Scientists have witnessed the formation of the solid-electrolyte interphase, a critical component in lithium-ion batteries.

A new drug delivery method designed by researchers at PNNL and Washington State University (WSU) has shown it can target and kill lung cancer cells.

Scientists have uncovered a root cause of the growth of needle-like structures—known as dendrites and whiskers—that plague lithium batteries, sometimes causing a short circuit, failure, or even a fire.

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories have joined forces to reduce costs and improve the reliability of hydrogen fueling stations.

PNNL has developed a technology to manufacture rods and tubes directly from high-performance aluminum alloy powder—in just one single step.

An organic molecule used in dyes and antibiotics may be the key to less expensive, more efficient redox flow batteries.

New technique developed by PNNL successfully joins thicker aluminum alloys to steel

When it comes to the special sauce of batteries, PNNL researchers say it's all about the salt concentration.

Inaugural meeting of battery science pros launched in China.

PNNL and UW announce the joint Northwest Institute for Materials Physics, Chemistry and Technology — or NW IMPACT — to advance materials science.

PNNL researchers report in the journal Chem, that inexpensive materials called metal-organic frameworks have been very successful in separating xenon.
