Quantumscape achieves solid-state batteries that can fast charge in 15 minutes through 400 consecutive cy

"Allegedly."

Was there a recent battery discussion? I didn't see anything in the last page. My phone told me about: https://electrek.co/2022/02/02/quant...cutive-cycles/

...and...

U Mich team develops 1,000-cycle lithium-sulfur battery using microscopic layers of recycled Kevlar to prevent dendrites.

I ran across this whole looking for a source other than my weird app:
Quote:
The tests revealed that adding 10% by weight of Kevlar nanofibres to the modified rGO electrodes yields structures with a tensile strength of almost 200 MPa and a Young’s modulus in excess of 10 MPa – which is similar to the mechanical properties of natural materials such as wood or bone.
Materials with the strength of wood or bone don't sound like the best option for structural batteries, but that is an improvement? https://physicsworld.com/a/structura...s-to-the-test/
