Beyond lithium – simulating better chemistries
Wrestling better performance from battery chemistries is a tough task. Chemical engineers are faced with solving a multi-variable optimisation problem, juggling energy density, cycle life, cost, safety and charge time – all under intense competitive pressure.
Deep Insight
Fuel cell adhesives
Developing adhesives and sealing materials appropriate for hydrogen-based fuel cells and electrolysers is a sticky challenge. Nick Flaherty investigates. Hydrogen is the smallest of all molecules, meaning that the adhesives and sealants used for fuel cells must ensure a very tight seal to prevent diffusion.

Volvo Construction Equipment
Volvo CE is taking on the task of electrification of heavy-duty off-highway vehicles. Peter Donaldson has unearthed all the details Clean air and quiet are not associated with construction sites in the public mind; rather, the imagined scene is characterised by the roar of diesel engines powering excavators, dump trucks, pile drivers, cement mixers and generators. The picture is similar in agriculture and forestry, where diesel-engined tractors, telehandlers, harvesters, forwarders and others dominate. Although modern diesels are far cleaner and quieter than their predecessors, the writing is on the wall and this sector is being transformed through electrification.
