The Clean Carbon Conductors team, with members from Rice University and DexMat Co, is designing enhanced-conductivity CNTs by improving fiber quality, alignment, packing density, and by electrochemically doping the CNTs. Each winning team has earned a $25,000 cash prize and a stipend for third-party conductivity testing in Stage 2.

Vacuum stability is particularly challenging, according to the DOE, since many of these high‐pressure storage systems rely on carbon fiber reinforced composites that tend to off‐gas under vacuum and hydrogen permeation through the vessel liner is often observed. The workshop will be held on 29 October 2015, in Dallas, Texas.

TRI’s work in these systems will promote feedstock flexibility and enable the processing of low-cost feedstock to enhance IBRs’ economic viability. The MIBR will improve IBR sustainability and cost-effectiveness. These products will generate revenue for IBRs and help lower the fuel cost from these facilities.
