“When Lane broke the short silence, it was because he was not one to keep a punch line to himself for any length of time. ‘This guy Brughman thinks I ought to publish the paper somewhere’, he said abruptly. ‘I don't know, though.’” —— Franny and Zooey

Just like in drug delivery, functional additives in batteries need to be released in a controlled way—if not, they can end up causing problems like dendritic growth instead of preventing them....
Preprint Dated: May 24th, 2025
You might have thought about mass transport involved in electrodeposition upon battery recharge, BUT what about electro-dissolution upon discharge?

An architecture with a high intrinsic electrical conductivity results in dominantly out-of-plane growth, making the 3D architecture in effect function as a 2D substrate.
The 3D architecture for hosting metal deposits should be neither too conductive nor too insulative electronically, compared to the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte.

“They didn’t act like people and they didn’t act like actors. It’s hard to explain. They acted more like they knew they were celebrities and all. I mean they were good, but they were too good. When one of them got finished making a speech, the other one said something very fast right after it. It was supposed to be like people really talking and interrupting each other and all. The trouble was, it was too much like people talking and interrupting each other. They acted a little bit the way old Ernie, down in the Village, plays the piano. If you do something too good, then, after a while, if you don’t watch it, you start showing off. And then you’re not as good any more. But anyway, they were the only ones in the show―the Lunts, I mean―that looked like they had any real brains. I have to admit it.” —— The Catcher in the Rye
