According to "Korea Herald" Beijing time on November 27 reported that Samsung Electronics announced today that the company has developed a graphene battery technology, battery capacity while improving the charging speed up to 5 times the existing standard.
Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT) said that based on graphene materials The battery capacity is 45% higher than the current market.
Graphene, a form of carbon, is considered the perfect material for batteries because it has an electron mobility about 140 times that of silicon.
Samsung says fully equipped batteries with 'graphene balls' will take only 12 minutes, compared with an hour's worth of existing batteries to fully charge.
As the graphene battery can be stable up to 60 degrees Celsius, the new battery is also expected to be used in electric vehicles.
Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology said they have released the study to the "Nature Communications" (Nature Communications) magazine, Titled "Graphene Ball for Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Supporting Rapid Charge, High-Volume Energy Density" and patented in Korea and the United States.
