The new composite materials breakthrough has direct implications for electric motors

Posted on by Haptic

Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory used new techniques to create a composite that increases the electrical current capacity of copper wires, providing a new material that can be scaled for use in ultra-efficient, power-dense electric vehicle traction motors. The research is aimed at reducing barriers to wider electric vehicle adoption, including cutting the cost Read more about The new composite materials breakthrough has direct implications for electric motors[…]

A novel method for the creation of an all-nanotube stretchable supercapacitor fabrication

Posted on by Haptic

Currently, research in the domain of flexible and stretchable supercapacitors is focused on adjusting electrodes, as they have the most significant effect on performance. However, the separator materials for such applications remain largely unexplored. Recently, a group of scientists from Skoltech and Aalto University (Finland) proposed a novel method for the creation of an all-nanotube Read more about A novel method for the creation of an all-nanotube stretchable supercapacitor fabrication[…]
