Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The fast-paced development of science and technology has brought unprecedented advances to human society. The continued consumption of fossil fuels had led to the ever-growing demand for clean, renewable and sustainable energy source. Electrochemical energy storage systems have ushered in significant development opportunities. Among the various electrical energy systems, potassium ion batteries have been extensively explored due to their natural abundance and low cost of potassium resource, high security and environmental friendliness.
The main prerequisite for the future success of potassium ion batteries is further improvements properties of electrode materials. In addition, the new insights regarding the synthesis and characterization of new electrodes and electrolytes are the key factor of the rapid development of potassium ion batteries. Therefore, a state of the art summary of the new insights in potassium ion batteries: materials and properties is very important.
This Special Issue is entitled “New Insights in Potassium Ion Batteries: Materials and Properties”. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. The papers presented in this Special Issue provide an overview of the new insights regarding potassium ion batteries about materials and properties. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: the design, synthesis and characterization of electrode materials and electrolytes, and the modified properties of electrodes for potassium ion batteries. Your contribution to this Special Issue is highly valuable and appreciated. We invite you to contribute research work that explores the new insights in potassium ion batteries from a materials and properties perspective. We look forward to receiving your contributions.
