Samsung, SK hynix push upgrades at China NAND plants as YMTC closes in
Samsung Electronics and SK hynix are moving to upgrade technology at their NAND flash plants in China as storage demand rises from AI data centres and YMTC\'s market share climbs quickly. Samsung is seeking to shift processes at its Xi\'an plant to produce 286-layer V9 NAND, while SK hynix is accelerating equipment upgrades in Dalian to target production of 240 layers or more. The plans must proceed within U.S. export controls, with approval for equipment still a key variable.

China develops high-performance electrolyte for all-solid-state batteries, maintaining 84 percent capacity after 350 cycles
Chinese researchers have developed a new electrolyte system for all-solid-state batteries that maintained 84.15 percent of its initial capacity after 350 charge-discharge cycles. The team at the Chinese Academy of Sciences\' Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics applied a PVDF-based gel composite electrolyte and focused on reactions between lithium oxychloride and PVDF to improve bonding and ion conduction. The study did not provide figures for energy density, driving range or charging speed.
