Cobalt-free batteries could power cars of the future Chemists developed a battery cathode based on organic materials, which could reduce the EV industry's reliance on scarce metals Date: January ...

Highlights: Metal extraction of 96.1 - 98.5% nickel and 96.1 - 97.7% cobalt from bioleaching tests. Bioleaching could offer much higher metal recoveries than flotation (29-51% nickel and 48-89% cobalt ...

To address these issues, lithium nickel oxide (LiNiO 2) — which is similar in structure to LiCoO 2 — often serves as a cobalt-free alternative for electrode material.

The need for nickel for electric vehicles grew nearly 30 percent in 2023 over the year before, according to the International Energy Agency. EV battery demand for cobalt increased 15 percent in ...

Tesla (TSLA.O) batteries typically use nickel-cobalt-aluminium (NCA) but the dominant cathode chemistry in the auto sector is nickel-cobalt-manganese (NCM). The original ratio was 1-1-1.
