Mass demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) consumes enormous resources, thus having a great impact on the battery supply chain. It is essential to create a sustainable manufacturing cycle for LIBs. Recently in Nature, Wooley and collaborators reported an all-polypeptide organic radical battery, demonstrating the potential of sustainable, recyclable metal-free batteries.

基于多肽的电池走向可持续和循环制造

对锂离子电池（LIB）的大量需求消耗了大量资源，从而对电池供应链产生了巨大影响。为 LIB 创造可持续的制造周期至关重要。最近在Nature 上，Wooley 及其合作者报道了一种全多肽有机自由基电池，展示了可持续、可回收的无金属电池的潜力。
