Around 40 participants of the two school visit days on March 11 and 12, 2025, gained insights into research on energy storage systems at MEET Battery Research Center at the University of Münster. Equipped with lab coats and safety goggles, the chemistry classes were able to follow the work of the institute's scientists in the various laboratories and conduct their own experiments. Read more
A team from MEET Battery Research Center and Helmholtz Institute Münster has developed a dual protective layer (DPL) for lithium metal batteries. It consists of an intermetallic and an overlying inorganic layer and improves the cycle stability of the cells. Read more
In an international study led by MEET Battery Research Center, a scientific team has incorporated the semimetal boron into the tetrahedral site of nickel-rich layered oxides (NCM811). In this way, the researchers were able to significantly improve the capacity and cycle stability of the battery cells. Read more
From innovative materials, improved cell designs and sustainable production processes to recycling: The European project CIRCUBATT (“Circular Economy Innovations for Resilient, Competitive and Sustainable Battery Technologies”) was launched at MEETBattery Research Center in January 2025 to further advance the circular economy of batteries.
