Swedish researchers explore use of carbon fiber as active electrode in structural battery for electric vehicles

Green Car Congress

JUNE 5, 2014

Researchers in Sweden are exploring the use of carbon fiber as an active electrode in a multifunctional structural Li-ion battery in an electric car; i.e., electrical storage is incorporated into the body of the car. This can result in a weight reduction for electric vehicles. In this €3.4-million

Graphene 3D Labs combines graphene nanoplatelets with thermoplastics used in FFF (fused filament fabrication) 3D printing, ultimately resulting in a functionalized 3D printing filament offering electrical conductivity. Currently, the process requires the separate printing of individual components—i.e., cathode, anode, electrolyte.
