A research team in the United States recently turned the five components of lithium-ion batteries into liquids, and then sprayed them on glass plates, stainless steel plates, glazed tiles and beer glasses with a spray gun. Researchers say that this method can turn anything into a battery. The working principle of lithium electronic batteries is the charge exchange between the positive and negative electrodes. Compared with other rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion batteries are lighter, more powerful, and safer. Researchers at Rice University in Houston, Texas turned the five components of a typical lithium-ion battery into liquids and sprayed them on glass, stainless steel plates, glazed tiles and even beer mugs with a spray gun. The five components are the two collectors, the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the polymer separator between the two electrodes. 'Basically, this method allows us to turn any object or surface into a battery. In an experiment, the research team sprayed a jet battery on 9 tiles and then connected them. One of the tiles is connected to a solar battery and is illuminated by a white light tube in the laboratory to charge the battery. After the battery is fully charged, the 9 tiles are connected to a set of 40 light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which are continuously lit for more than 6 hours at a voltage of 2.4 volts. The research team also conducted 60 charge-discharge tests on these batteries, which proved that the capacity of the batteries only'decreased slightly' after multiple charges and discharges. The research team described the jet battery as a'paradigm shift in battery design', which may also bring new developments in the field of solar energy. Niram said: 'We can install solar cells on the surface of this tile battery, and then stick this tile on the building surface of the house. '. In this way, tiles can absorb solar energy, convert it into electricity, and store it. 'However, jet batteries have a fatal weakness. Its liquid uses toxic, flammable, and corrosive electrolytes, and must be sprayed in a dry and oxygen-free environment, which greatly limits its application in real life. The research team is actively solving this problem, making the spray battery a battery that everyone can use as soon as possible.
