Scientists have developed a new graphene-based battery material with charging speed five times faster than today’s lithium-ion batteries. The break through by researchers at the Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT) in South Korea provides promise for the next generation mobile batteries and electric vehicles. Standard lithium batteries require charging time of atleast an hour to fully charge, even with quick charging technology. So, numerous attempts to explore new innovative materials have been started . Among the materials looked at, graphene, a material with high strength and conductivity, has widely become the primary source of interest.
