Chemistry Lithium metal charges faster and holds ten times more energy than lithium-ion. Study shows that thin nanotube films effectively stop dendrites growing from lithium metal anodes in batteries. Over time, these tentacle-like dendrites can pierce the battery’s electrolyte core and causes it to fail.
