WSU researchers discovered that a corn protein barrier boosts lithium-sulfur batteries' lifespan, increasing commercial ...

Scientists at the University of Washington have learned that corn protein can improve the performance of lithium-sulfur batteries.

She says that while the sulfur-based batteries are more environmentally friendly and less toxic than lithium-ion batteries, they are not used in mass production because they don't hold a charge.
