The growing demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in electric vehicles and energy storage systems poses risks to raw material supply. Recycling end-of-life LIBs is critical to supporting the future ...

A major cause of failures in metal fasteners is electrochemical corrosion (rust), or so-called galvanic action. Engineers and designers alike can greatly reduce this type of corrosion by specifying ...

Water is an excellent coolant, but the flip side is that it is also an excellent solvent. This, in short, is why any water cooling loop is also a prime candidate for an interesting introduction to the ...

Placing certain metal parts in contact with other metal parts can rapidly accelerate rust and corrosion. Ultimately, any metal or metallic compound is subject to corrosion at a greater or lesser rate, ...

Corrosion can have financial consequences. In the United States corrosion causes yearly losses of $47.9 billion in the utility industry, $29.7 billion in the transportation industry, $22.6 billion in ...

In addition to high purchase costs and the still underdeveloped charging infrastructure, the limited range is one of the biggest obstacles to switching to electric vehicles. Industry and science are ...

The electric battery has increased the penetration of motorisation and wirelessness in our lives. Electric batteries hold and release electrical energy that they have acquired by converting other ...
