Chalmers team develops graphite-like anode for Na-ion batteries; Janus graphene

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed a nanometric graphite-like anode for sodium ion (Na + storage), formed by stacked graphene sheets functionalized only on one side, termed Janus graphene. The estimated sodium storage up to C 6.9 100 to 150 mA h g ? 100 to 150 mA h g ?1

Energy Harvesting for Wearable Technology Steps Up

Cars That Think

Not least of those considerations is energy storage [and generation].” For capacitors, voltage translates to electrons stored —the voltage drop across a capacitor is proportional to its total charge.) The group fabricated their device using CFRP, sodium potassium niobate (KNN) nanoparticles, and epoxy resin.
