This revolutionary battery material charge you phone in just seconds

It typically takes around two hours to charge your iPhone from dead to fully juiced up. But what if you got your hands on a magical battery that could do it in seconds?

This could actually be a reality with a new nanomaterial called MXene. 

The material is the product of research from Drexel University, headed by materials science and engineering professor Yury Gogotsi. 

The nanomaterial differs from traditional batteries because it opens up more paths for ions to move quickly throughout the material. 

The revolutionary electrode design uses a two-dimensional material called MXene to enable this proceess. Electrodes are the places where energy is stored in batteries for charging, so a change here can really morph the entire battery composition and charging process as we know it. Read more...
