Rubber is made of polymers often connected by permanent, covalent bonds. In order to make a rubber self-healable, the team needed to make the bonds connecting the polymers reversible, so that the bonds could break and reform. While these bonds are incredibly strong, they will never reconnect once broken. —Wu et al. Resources.

It is currently contemplated that Gevo will ship the first gallons of ATJ to the Virgin Australia Group in October 2017. The ATJ is derived from isobutanol produced at its commercial isobutanol plant located in Luverne, Minnesota. Gevo will supply the ATJ from its hydrocarbon plant based in Silsbee, Texas.

Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells require precise temperature and moisture controls to be at their best. The performance of polymer-electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) and other multiphase flow technologies is significantly dependent on liquid-water management. The study used materials that are relevant to commercial fuel cells.

The dissolution process generates hydrogen gas, which could be captured and used to help fuel the heating step. The polymer separation membranes conventionally used in these batteries cannot withstand the high temperatures generated by certain failure scenarios. The dissolved lithium can be recovered and reused. 355, Issue 6322, pp.
