subject: New Battery Technology From Argonne Helps Power Chevy Volt News ,www.batterylaptopower.com(part Two) [print this page] Wholesaler & distributor of laptop batteries replacement for Compaq, HP, Dell, Acer, Sony, IBM, Toshiba. Our notebook batteries are made from high quality battery cells, which offer the quality and capacity as their (Original Equipment Manufacturer) counterparts. We guarantee our laptop batteries for full 1 year warranty and 30-day money back on every laptop battery.
Batteries for electric and plug-in hybrid cars are much larger-and thus far more expensive-than laptop batteries, and they make up a large percentage of the cars price. Lowering the cost of the Acer aspire 5920 battery will lower the cost of all-electric and hybrid cars, according to Khalil Amine, an Argonne senior materials scientist, and subsequent improvements will improve battery performance even further.
Based on our data, the next generation of batteries will last twice as long as current models, Amine said.
The team-especially the co-holders of the original patent: Thackeray, Johnson, Amine, Jaekook Kim and Sun-Ho Kang-is happy to see the Acer aspire 1310 battery technology make its way from the laboratory to the road.
I would love to point to a car on the street and tell my son, This car has our invention in it! Amine said.
Seeing homegrown innovations going into a large-scale production like the Volt-thats really exciting and good for America, Johnson added. Its really the ultimate goal for a researcher.
Furthermore, Chamberlain said that the new Acer aspire 1315 battery technology pioneered by the lab can boost American manufacturing and create new jobs.
Batteries are a large, heavy component of electric and hybrid cars, and so its best to manufacture them near the factory where the cars are assembled, Chamberlain explained. This means cars assembled in U.S. factories will also need battery factories nearby-creating more American jobs.
A total of $1.5 billion in stimulus grants went to several companies last year-including A123 Systems, Johnson Controls and Compact Acer aspire 6935g battery dell d630 battery Power, an LG-Chem subsidiary-to build battery plants in the U.S. (A full list of the grants is available online.)
Chamberlain, who worked in private industry for 13 years before joining Argonne in 2006, says the national laboratories play a crucial role in developing these kinds of breakthrough technologies. The labs perform basic research, he said. In the U.S., businesses tend to invest in research that will pay off in the short term; in this field of research, the national laboratories are filling a gap by conducting the essential research that will change the game ten to 20 years down the road.
When companies show interest in the hp 530 battery Hp pavilion dv9700 batterytechnology, he said, the labs collaborate with them to help adopt the method for large-scale production.
LG Chem licensed the technology from Argonne and used the materials to create the battery supplied for the 2011 Volt. GM has also licensed the technology for their own tests.
Seeing this play out is absolutely gratifying, Chamberlain said. Were developing technology that Im highly confident will help make plug-in hybrid cars more economic. The work at Argonne ends up in the hands of taxpayers who paid for research. This is a fulcrum, a key component to moving away from fossil fuels.
The technology remains available for licensing.
Argonne National Laboratory seeks solutions to pressing national problems in science and Hp dv9700 adapter technology. The nations first national laboratory, Argonne conducts leading-edge basic and applied scientific research in virtually every scientific discipline. Argonne researchers work closely with researchers from hundreds of companies, universities, and federal, state and municipal agencies to help them solve their specific problems, advance America s scientific leadership and prepare the nation for a better future. With employees from more than 60 nations, Argonne is managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energys Office of Science.
