Save That Plastic Research Finds How To Get Hydrogen From It
October 11, 2023 | Leave a Comment
Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Rice University researchers have found a way to harvest hydrogen from plastic waste using a low-emissions method that generates graphene as a by-product, which could help offset production costs. Hydrogen is viewed as a promising alternative to fossil fuel, but the methods used to make it either generate too much carbon dioxide or are […]

New Source Of Graphene Found Made From Truck Plastics
June 21, 2022 | Leave a Comment
Rice University chemists have processed waste plastic from end-of-life F-150 trucks into graphene for composite materials in new vehicles. The suggestion is that parts of an old car gets turned into graphene that could come back as a better part for new cars. Rice University chemists working with researchers at the Ford Motor Company are […]

More Progress For High Temp Superconductivity
February 24, 2021 | Leave a Comment
Harvard scientists reported superconductivity progress that’s more robust and operates at higher temperatures. The scientists successfully stacked three sheets of graphene and then twisted each of them at a specific angle to produce a three-layered structure more capable, robust and with a higher operating temperature than many of the double-stacked graphene designs. In 2018, the […]

Graphene Made To Generate Power and May Replace Batteries
October 6, 2020 | Leave a Comment
University of Arkansas physicists have successfully generated an electrical current from the atomic motion of graphene, discovering a new source of clean, limitless power. Paul Thibado, professor of physics and lead researcher in the discovery said, “An energy-harvesting circuit based on graphene could be incorporated into a chip to provide clean, limitless, low-voltage power for […]

A New Idea About How to Make Superconductors
October 10, 2019 | 1 Comment
Ohio State University researchers, in collaboration with scientists around the world, have made a discovery that could provide new insights into how superconductors might move energy more efficiently to power homes, industries and vehicles. Their work showed that graphene – a material composed of a single layer of carbon atoms – is more likely to […]
