Solid Electrolytes
Solid electrolytes are materials used in batteries that conduct electricity through a solid state, instead of a liquid or gel. They allow ions (charged particles) to move between the battery’s positive and negative sides, enabling energy transfer. Solid electrolytes enhance safety because they are less prone to leaks or fires and can withstand higher temperatures. They also enable the development of more compact and durable batteries, which could lead to devices with longer battery life and improved performance. Overall, solid electrolytes represent a promising advancement toward safer, more efficient energy storage technologies.
