FTIR Spectroscopy Study on Rapid Polysulfide Binding via Caffeine in Lithium-Sulfur Batteries.

J Phys Chem Lett

December 2024

Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, Drexel University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104, United States.

Lithium-sulfur batteries are limited by the high mobility of polysulfides in the electrolyte, which allows them to migrate from the cathode to the lithium anode. This is known as polysulfide shuttling and simultaneously diminishes the active material and poisons the anode. Various cathode additives have been shown empirically to mitigate this problem, although the mechanism is not often ascertained experimentally.

Early diagnosis of nonconvulsive status epilepticus due to lithium intoxication using 6-channel electroencephalography.

CJEM

December 2024

Department of Forensic Medicine, Graduate School of Biomedical and Health Sciences, Hiroshima University, 1-2-3 Kasumi, Minami-ku, Hiroshima City, Hiroshima, 734-8553, Japan.

Introduction: Nonconvulsive status epilepticus is a severe complication of lithium intoxication that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. While conventional electroencephalography (EEG) remains the gold standard for diagnosis for nonconvulsive status epilepticus, its implementation in emergency settings can be challenging and time-consuming. We present a case in which simplified EEG with six electrodes enabled rapid detection and monitoring of nonconvulsive status epilepticus in lithium intoxication in the emergency setting.

The challenge of moving to a carbon-free energy economy is highlighted in the context of technology and materials restrictions. Many technologies needed for the so-called energy transition depend on critical metals such as platinum, lithium, iridium and cobalt. Here we focus on solid borohydride salts as hydrogen carriers, studying catalysts for hydrogen release.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the health risks associated with lithium (Li) and other metals in bottled and spring water due to the growing demand for lithium linked to renewable energy.
  • Using a national database of water samples, researchers found concerning levels of various metals, with lithium concentrations that often exceeded safety limits, particularly in bottled water.
  • Results suggest significant correlations between lithium and other minerals, indicating potential health risks that necessitate further research and possible regulations on water quality.
