Dongguk University Scientists Uncover Novel Battery Design for Industrial Energy Storage

Researchers developed a graphene coating that supercharges zinc-ion batteries for grid use
May 12, 2025
Zinc-ion batteries are promising for energy storage, but their traditional current collectors suffer from scalability issues, restricting industrial applications. In a recent study, researchers from Dongguk University have designed a novel alternative current collector in the form of graphene-coated stainless-steel foil. Consequently, they achieve batteries with high electrochemical performance and superior cycling stability, potentially paving the way for industrial-scale systems.
The present century has witnessed a proactive shift towards more sustainable forms of energy, including renewable resources such as solar power, wind, nuclear energy, and geothermal energy. These technologies naturally require … Read More → "Dongguk University Scientists Uncover Novel Battery Design for Industrial Energy Storage"

RJ45 jacks with integrated magnetics simplify design and reduce EMI risks

May 12, 2025

Middletown, PA – Phoenix Contact now offers RJ45 jacks with integrated magnetics. The integrated magnetics within the RJ45 jacks improve electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise shielding and ensure reliable data connections in industrial environments.

Because the magnetics are integrated, the RJ45 jacks simplify the Ethernet design process and reduce PCB complexity. The 90° and 180° single-port PCB connectors are suitable for wave soldering (THT) and reflow (THR) processing, which enables automated processing. With their robust industrial design, they can be used under demanding conditions.

The RJ45 jacks enable data rates up to 1 Gbps. They feature … Read More → "RJ45 jacks with integrated magnetics simplify design and reduce EMI risks"
