Researchers at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore said on the 13th, after three years of experimentation, they have successfully developed an ultra-fast rechargeable battery that can charge up to 70 percent in two minutes and has a service life of up to 20 years.

At present, rechargeable lithium batteries are widely used in mobile phones, tablet PCs and electric vehicles and other fields. "The breakthrough in the technology will have a wide impact on all industries, especially in the area of electric vehicles that are subject to battery life," Nanyang Polytechnic University said in a statement to the media.

According to reports, the traditional lithium battery electrode using graphite, and this battery using titanium dioxide made of new gel material instead. Titanium dioxide commonly known as titanium dioxide, is a rich in the soil, cheap and safe materials. In this study, the use of titanium dioxide made of small nanotubes, allowing the battery to accelerate the chemical reaction, so that the battery can be quickly charged.

Chen Xiaodong, assistant professor of materials science and engineering at Nanyang Technological University, said the results could greatly enhance the ease of use of electric vehicles because it could no longer be subject to battery charging time, as traditional cars entered the gas station It will soon be able to open the same, it only takes a few minutes to charge.
