Graphene Could Kill Lithium-Ion Batteries
A multinational research team has developed a graphene wrapped, porous carbon “bridge” for lithium-sulfur batteries, which could leave lithium-ion behind.
Flakey New “Foam Party” Graphene Battery Breakthrough
Researchers at Rice University have whipped up a flexible foam-based, flakey graphene battery in the form of an inexpensive microsupercapacitor.
Energy Storage Slam-Dunk: Graphene + Carbon Nanotubes + Li-ion EV Batteries
Researchers have created an energy storage film that can be embedded into electric vehicle body parts, potentially replacing Li-ion batteries.
3D Printable Graphene Battery Developed
A completely functional 3D printable graphene battery — one based on graphene nanoplatelet functionalized 3D printing filament — was recently developed by researchers at Graphene 3D Lab. The new prototype 3D printable graphene battery was unveiled at the recent Inside 3D Printing Conference that took place in Santa Clara, California. … [continued]
Graphene Flagship Initiative Gets First Associated Members
The Graphene Flagship — an initiative intended to bring together researchers, engineers, and corporations interested in advancing graphene-based technologies — recently welcomed its first four associated members. Those first four associated members — ABB (Switzerland), Netzsch (Germany), NetComposites (UK), and Imerys (Switzerland) — represent what is simply one of the first … [continued]
New 3D-Printed Battery Packs Graphene Punch
A new 3D-printed battery prototype from the aptly named company Graphene 3D lab embeds “nanoplatelets” of graphene in polymer filaments for 3D printing.
$10 Bet Leads To New Synthetic Graphene
A researcher loses $10 but at least she comes up with a new pathway for mass producing high quality synthetic graphene for next-gen clean tech gear
What Is Graphene? (Infographic)
If graphene were on the stock market, I could see it having similar investor enthusiasm to what Tesla has. People are absolutely crazy about it, and there are some staggering numbers that explain why. We’ve been covering graphene for quite awhile, and my take on it is that it will have … [continued]
500-Mile Tesla Graphene Battery?
Word on the street is that Tesla may be working on a 500-mile graphene battery. Graphene is, of course, a kind of supermaterial, and it’s possible Tesla is looking into it, but I’m also a bit skeptical. First, let’s look at the reasons why someone might think Tesla is working on an … [continued]
