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

Green Car Congress

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.

Graphene 3D Lab showing prototype 3D printed battery; potential for structural batteries

Green Car Congress

which develops, manufactures, and markets proprietary graphene-based nanocomposite materials for various types of 3D printing, including fused filament fabrication, has developed a 3D printable graphene battery. However, a true multi-material 3D printer would enable the printing of the entire battery in one single print, the company notes.
