.@UCLA chemical engineers led by Assoc. Prof. Yuzhang Li of @UclaCBE published two new studies in @Nature and Joule finding next-generation metal batteries can lose significant capacity while idle, plus strategies to slow the aging and extend battery life. samueli.ucla.edu/new-ucla-en…

New UCLA Engineering Studies Aim to Slow Battery Aging While Idle

Most batteries spend more than 70% of their lifetime at rest. Yet few studies have examined calendar aging, which is how a battery degrades when it is neither charging nor being used.
