Now, a team of researchers at MIT and Brookhaven National Laboratory has developed a way of achieving results that equal or surpass the durability of the coated surfaces, but with no need for any coatings. Reaction product for annealing in air is from previous work. It doesn’t add much energy penalty to the fabrication.

John Hansman , an aeronautics and astronautics professor at MIT and director of the university’s International Center for Air Transportation. The first challenge is hydrogen production. While NASA typically relies on helium, a new way to purge fuel lines may be needed to work for a commercial aviation setting. asks Professor R.

Current commercialized technologies do not produce those components to qualify for a 100% SAF. Other parts of plants are used for biofuels, but lignin has been largely overlooked because of the difficulties in breaking it down chemically and converting it into useful products. —Stone et al.

Researchers at MIT and in China are proposing a new class of dense intercalation-conversion hybrid cathodes by combining intercalation-type Mo 6 S 8 with conversion-type sulfur (HMSC) to realize a Li–S full cell. This is comparable to some commercial batteries, indicating that the new device does match its predicted characteristics.
