Nanomaterials enhance battery performance in several ways:
Increased Surface Area: Nanomaterials provide a larger surface area for electrochemical reactions, allowing for more active sites and improved capacity. Faster Charge/Discharge Rates: The reduced dimensions of nanomaterials facilitate faster electron and ion transport, leading to quicker charging and discharging. Enhanced Conductivity: Nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes and graphene have high conductivity, improving the overall efficiency of the battery. Structural Stability: Nanomaterials can withstand mechanical stress better, reducing degradation and enhancing the battery's lifespan.
