Researchers from Nanjing Forestry University and the University of Maryland have designed high-performance microfibers by hybridizing two-dimensional (2D) graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets and one-dimensional (1D) nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) fibers. Note that the infiltrated GO–NFC microfibers were also lightweight in nature.

Vorbeck Materials , a startup company based in Jessup, Maryland, is using a Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL)-developed method for developing graphene for better lithium air and lithium sulfur batteries. When combined with other advanced battery materials, it could effectively lower battery life cycle cost by up to 70%.

So I think top universities, government labs, industry folks, lots of equipment. One, we just did a workshop at the University of— sorry, North Carolina State University about that very problem, right? One is to get low-cost scientific tools like the 3D printer. So what we’re starting with is a low-cost 3D printer.
