“Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences - Sony lithium battery joint laboratory” in Shanghai on July 14 opening. Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, and Sony, respectively, in sodium-sulfur battery and lithium-ion battery development has accumulated a wealth of experience, joint research laboratory will be the next generation of battery technology, to develop a similar energy density of gasoline the car battery.
According to the Joint Laboratory Guoxiang Xin, deputy director of the Chinese researcher, the main advantage of the next generation of lithium batteries as large energy storage battery energy density can be increased compared with the previous battery 5-10 times. As the energy density of gasoline is similar to the next generation of lithium batteries is expected to solve a new generation of green vehicles - electric cars energy supply. In addition, next-generation lithium battery also has a friendly, high-power, long life and many other advantages. At present, the next generation of lithium battery research and development is still in the basic research stage, the need to address the battery power density, cycle stability and other issues, the application of new technologies into the market take some time. The “lithium Joint Laboratory” is enabled, Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, and Sony will make full use of both technology and talent resources to actively promote the development and application of the next generation of lithium batteries.
It is reported that as early as 2005, Sony Corporation and the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, which signed the first joint research project contract of carbon nanotubes in 2007, Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, the two sides established a solar cell as the main object of study, focus on new materials development and application of energy the first joint lab in the new energy R & D has achieved good results.
