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 […]
