However, the massive scale of building reactors means that projects get delayed, and cost overruns are common. These shortcomings are being addressed through innovations such as small modular reactors ...

Scientists have linked a lithium battery plant fire in California earlier this month to a surge in heavy metals found in nearby soil.

Lithium fluoride (LiF) has garnered significant attention in the field of radiation detection due to its unique properties, particularly the formation of color centers when irradiated. These color ...

This converts the lithium at the interface into lithium fluoride (LiF). It is important to note that the lithium atoms of the cathode material remain as ions, that is, as positively charged particles.

Iron fluoride (FeF 3) and other metal fluoride materials are gaining significant attention as potential cathode materials for lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries. These materials are particularly ...

A plume of material released from the plant contained hydroflouride, a toxic gas, that is now being monitored by Monterey ...

The EPA began monitoring for hydrogen fluoride, a highly toxic gas produced by lithium-ion battery fires, and for particulate matter on day two of the incident, according to the county’s timeline, ...

Fire crews are waiting for the flames to die out as lithium-ion batteries are tough to put out, as the flames continue to ...

An evacuation order has been lifted after a lithium-ion battery fire broke out ... including toxic hydrogen fluoride, released Thursday night from the Moss Landing Power Plant, which serves ...

The LLNL work will build on the Lab-developed driver system dubbed the Big Aperture Thulium (BAT) laser, a novel petawatt-class laser conceptual design using thulium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride as ...
