Caltech, JPL designed megasupramolecule fuel additive reduces intensity of post-impact fuel explosions

Green Car Congress

OCTOBER 2, 2015

In the wake of the 1977 Tenerife airport disaster (583 killed in a post-crash fireball), researchers looked into the possibility of using ultralong, associative polymers as a fuel additive to increase the drop diameter in the post-impact mist, thereby limiting the event to a relatively cool, short-lived fire.

European Researchers Developing Multifunctional Structural Composite Material That Can Double as Energy Storage

Green Car Congress

FEBRUARY 5, 2010

Researchers from Imperial College London and their European partners, including Volvo Car Corporation, are developing a prototype multifunctional structural composite material composed of carbon fibers and a polymer resin which can store and discharge electrical energy and which is also strong and lightweight enough to be used for car parts.
