In a paper in Nature Materials , the Penn State team reports a molecular-level SEI design using a reactive polymer composite, which effectively suppresses electrolyte consumption in the formation and maintenance of the SEI. In this project, we used a polymer composite to create a much better SEI. V Li|LiNi 0.5 Kim, Thomas E.

BroadBit uses it to produce new types of sodium-ion batteries. In order to protect operators and the environment, elaborate precautions for occupational safety and reprocessing are necessary. The shear forces in this system tear entire molecular chains out of the binder polymers. They process this dry mixture in a rolling mill.

Solar won’t work for nocturnal animals or creatures in low-light environments. Challenges: Sustainability and industry collaboration This efficient energy harvester combines piezoelectric composites with carbon fiber–reinforced polymer and epoxy resin, a unique combination that was able to store electricity even after 100,000 uses.

Applying an electrical potential to the conducting polymer membrane alters the redox state, allows it to conduct ions across the membrane. The team reported a maximum conductance of 30 µS cm -1 and a current gain of 60x as the polymer switches between oxidized and reduced states. Travis Herya and Sundaresan (2016).
