Scientists reported progress today in using a common virus to develop improved materials for high-performance, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that could be woven into clothing to power portable electronic devices. They discussed development of the new materials for the battery's cathode, or negative electrode, at the 240th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS), being held here this week.
