- Layered Material Discovery – North Carolina State University researchers discovered battery materials with atomic thin layers of water can enable better storage and delivery of energy than material without water layers
- Comparison Study – Compared crystalline tungsten oxide with water layered material crystalline tungsten oxide hydrate, which they both charged for 10 minutes and 12 seconds
- Better Charge Results – Tungsten oxide stored more energy when charged for 10 minutes but hydrate material stored more energy and charged more efficiently when charged in 12 seconds
- Applications – Can make slimmer batteries, faster renewable grid storage, and faster acceleration in electric vehicles
