New lightweight materials for energy technologies

Posted on by Haptic

The explosion of mobile electronic devices, electric vehicles, drones and other technologies have driven demand for new lightweight materials that can provide the power to operate them. Researchers from the University of Houston and Texas A&M University have reported a structural supercapacitor electrode made from reduced graphene oxide and aramid nanofiber that is stronger and Read more about New lightweight materials for energy technologies[…]

New Monitoring Tool Would Be Able to Detect Imperfections Almost Instantaneously

Posted on by Haptic

Researchers from the University of Houston are developing a new quality control tool for continuous nanomanufacturing, a key step in moving nanodevices from the lab to the real world. “Nanomanufacturing sounds great, but it really has to be scalable,” said Venkat Selvamanickam, MD Anderson Chair Professor of Mechanical Engineering. “You have to be able to Read more about New Monitoring Tool Would Be Able to Detect Imperfections Almost Instantaneously[…]
