Nicknamed “fuzzy fiber” by its inventor at UDRI, Nano Adaptive Hybrid Fabric (NAHF-XTM) is the first tailored nanomaterial capable of being produced in sizes and quantities large enough to make them affordable and viable for large-scale commercial use. This is going to disrupt the way we think about materials. Brian Rice.

Conversely, high coating thicknesses for the electrodes produce a high energy density. The high-performance battery makes the ideal partner to the fuel cell. It can store energy recovered from brake applications and supply considerable power for full- load boosting. The tanks can store around five kilograms (11.0
