Improving the Charge-Discharge Capacity and Cycleability of Carbon Electrodes for Li-ion Batteries

Green Car Congress

GMP40 (60:40 weight ratio of mixed mesophase pitch carbon and phenolic resin) produced the best results. However, carbon remains the predominant commercial anode material solution at this point. Some studies have demonstrated that carbon coating of graphite improves the anode performance in LIBs. Credit: ACS, Lin et al.

Stanford team reports new low-cost, non-precious metal catalyst for water splitting with performance close to platinum

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Stanford University, with colleagues at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and other institutions, have developed a nickel-based electrocatalyst for low-cost water-splitting for hydrogen production with performance close to that of much more expensive commercial platinum electrocatalysts. and Stephen J.

The Day the U.S. TV Industry Died

Cars That Think

Zenith manufactures the first commercial radio set to operate on ac. production facilities, in Matamoros, Mexico, and in Taiwan, and patents surface-wave intermediate-frequency filter. In Zenith’s Chromacolor tube, the phosphor dots are reduced in size and a black carbon material—the black surround—is deposited between them.

GE Introduces Upgraded 7FA Gas Turbine for Power Generation; Improved Output and Efficiency

Green Car Congress

That available supply, coupled with the current low cost and the fact that natural gas emits less carbon than other fossil fuels, has spurred many power generators to consider switching from other fuels to gas. and is expected to be transferred to Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) after it enters commercial operation.
