Description

3D printed zinc lattices with electrochemical reversibility and stability. This project aims to 3D print novel zinc lattices with enhanced electrochemical reversibility and stability by utilising advanced grain refinement techniques and structure design. This project expects to significantly improve the reliability of zinc-based electrodes and rechargeable batteries for grid-scale renewable energy storage. Expected outcomes include cost-effective, safe, and eco-friendly next-generation metal electrodes, along with advanced manufacturing capabilities opening new opportunities for sustainable metal applications beyond energy. This should provide significant benefits by supporting Australia’s net zero emission target and reinforcing Australian manufacturers' leadership in global high-value metal supply chains.. Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 4016 - Materials Engineering. Lead: Prof Matthew Dargusch
