Under-Bench Storage Cabinets Ideal for Li-Ion Batteries

DENIOS introduces asecos under bench cabinets for the safe storage of undamaged lithium-ion batteries. They feature 90 minutes of fire protection from outside in or inside out, as well as a pressure relief valve that is normally closed but will open to release excess internal pressure should it build up. Robust construction includes tested liquid-tight […] <p>The post Under-Bench Storage Cabinets Ideal for Li-Ion Batteries first appeared on CCR-Mag.com.</p>

Scientists at the GIST Propose a Non-invasive Approach to Estimating Lithium-ion Battery Degradation

Scientists develop an alternative diagnostic technology to evaluate the degradation mechanism of Li-ion batteries quickly The emergence of electric vehicles has created a spike in the usage of lithium-ion batteries. Consequently, there is a need for diagnosing battery health reliably to prevent accidents from unexpected operational issues. To this end, scientists from the Gwangju Institute […] The post Scientists at the GIST Propose a Non-invasive Approach to Estimating Lithium-ion Battery Degradation appeared first on Civil + Structural Engineer magazine.
