#Coconut water: the natural #health drink for #Thailand’s brutal heat
"most celebrated quality is its #electrolyte content. Potassium, sodium, Mg & calcium work together to restore te body's fluid balance, making coconut water a popular choice aft exercise or during hot #weather.. Its nutrients also support skin health, promoting moisture & elasticity while helping to slow appearance of wrinkles. For women going thru menopause, te drink’s phytoestrogens may help"

Stay #Hydrated This #Winter By #Eating These #Electrolyte-Rich #Foods

Just because it's #cold doesn't mean you can't still get #dehydrated.

"...#dehydration and #alcohol #hangover seem to be caused by different mechanisms of action (dehydration is caused by #water and #electrolyte loss due to activation of the RAAS system and inhibiting aldosterone and vasopressin while alcohol hangover is elicited by oxidative stress and an inflammatory response). Further #research is required..."

Solid state batteries https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/feb/04/solid-state-batteries-inside-the-race-to-transform-the-science-of-electric-vehicles

Removing the liquid #electrolyte makes batteries less susceptible to fires & Solid-state batteries can be fully charged more quickly… solid electrolytes are less dense, so a solid-state battery can be smaller and lighter & make electric cars smaller and lighter, give them a greater range for the same size and weight…even make electric aircraft a viable proposition.

A new #electrolyte that raises the efficiency of the #zinc metal anode in zinc #batteries to nearly 100%, a breakthrough on the way to an alternative to #lithium-ion batteries for large-scale #energy storage.

A promising #material for #hydrogen #energy devices. The new material has high #proton #conductivity and unusual properties (depending on the degree of doping). It can be used as an #electrolyte (at high doping levels) and as an #electrode (at low doping levels) in solid oxide #fuel #cells and electrolyzers.

Have a look at the new preprint by our #BACCARAfellow Elina Nazmutdinova and coworkers on "Water-mediated synthesis of halide solid #electrolyte and conducting polymer hybrid materials for all solid-state #batteries". They developed a water-mediated one-pot synthesis of Li3InCl6 with PEDOT:PSS for use as catholyte component and tested it in combination with NMC particles. https://chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv/article-details/640205d937e01856dc1677b7

A #LFP #battery is a #steel can containing primarily (A) #graphite (synthetic or natural), and (B) #iron #phosphate (which is basically fertilizer). The next largest component is #electrolyte, primarily organic carbonates (a #petrochemical #solvent - on the lower toxicity end as far as solvents go). Next most common are the metal foils (#alumium and #copper). Next is the (#plastic) separator membrane.

In tiny quantities at the bottom of the list? Electrolyte additives and the #lithium itself.

@Timmy While there's lots of #nickel out there, the rate of scaling up battery-grade nickel production is believed to be slower than the capability to scale up #LFP production, hence the expected shift to LFP in the coming years.

So we've now covered the #anode and #cathode. The next greatest bulk comes from the casing (#steel) and the #electrolyte (mainly organic carbonates - a #petrochemical product). After this comes the #alumium and #copper current collector foils, then the...
