Researchers in Singapore and China have now demonstrated a &#8220;quasi-solid-state&#8221; battery\u2014made from materials somewhere between a liquid and a solid\u2014that can be compressed by as much as 60% while maintaining high energy density and good stability over 10,000 charge\u2013recharge cycles. The battery fabrication exploits 3-D printing, which, while attracting interest for producing complex battery structures, has posed challenges for batteries that can stretch, squash and bend while powering devices.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2020-07-3d-batteries.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">3D printed batteries handle the squeeze<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While flexible and stretchable electronics technologies have progressed in leaps and bounds over the past 10 years, batteries to power them have some catching up to do.
