These pairs (lithium (Li) and magnesium (Mg), beryllium (Be) and aluminium (Al), boron (B) and silicon (Si), etc.) exhibit similar properties; for example, boron and silicon are both semiconductors, forming halides that are hydrolysed in water and have acidic oxides.
Energy Exploration Technologies, Inc. (more commonly known as EnergyX) is an American technology company. [1] Founded in 2018 by Teague Egan, it is based out of San Juan, Puerto Rico and has offices and laboratory facilities in Austin, Texas, [2] and operations in the South American Lithium Triangle (Bolivia, Chile and Argentina).
LiFePO 4 is a 3.6 V lithium-ion battery cathode initially reported by John Goodenough and is structurally related to the mineral olivine and consists of a three dimensional lattice of an [FePO4] framework surrounding a lithium cation. The lithium cation sits in a one dimensional channel along the [010] axis of the crystal structure.
A magnesium–air battery has a theoretical operating voltage of 3.1 V and energy density of 6.8 kWh/kg. General Electric produced a magnesium–air battery operating in neutral NaCl solution as early as the 1960s. The magnesium–air battery is a primary cell, but has the potential to be 'refuelable' by replacement of the anode and electrolyte.
Lithium batteries are widely used in portable consumer electronic devices. The term "lithium battery" refers to a family of different lithium-metal chemistries, comprising many types of cathodes and electrolytes but all with metallic lithium as the anode. The battery requires from 0.15 to 0.3 kg (5 to 10 oz) of lithium per kWh.
It's still early days for the promise of safer, energy-dense solid-state rechargeable batteries. However, a team of scientists at the Joint Center for Energy Storage Research have just discovered ...
Lithium is used for lithium batteries; boron is used in alloys, ceramic, glasses, and other applications. [6] It was originally estimated that there are 200 million tons of the lithium borate ore, which would make the future Jadar mines one of the world's largest lithium deposits, supplying 10% of the world's demand for lithium.

Anode-free lithium ion batteries have been demonstrated using a variety of cathode materials, such as LiFePO 4, LiCoO 2, and LiNi 1/3 Mn 1/3 Co 1/3 (NMC 111).. These intercalation-type cathodes typically offer limited Li content (14.3 at.% for LiFePO4, 25 at.% for LiCoO2 and LiNixCoyMn1-x-yO2), although they remain the primary research targets. [2]
