MIT engineers create an energy-storing supercapacitor from ancient materials
From MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, Written by David L. Chandler, MIT News Office, 02/08/23 Two of humanity’s most ubiquitous historical materials, cement and carbon black (which resembles very fine charcoal), may form the basis for a novel, low-cost energy storage system, according to a new study. The technology could facilitate the use of renewable energy sources […]
Innovators achieve historic milestone in energy capacity of supercapacitors
From UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO 19/07/23 In a new landmark chemistry study, researchers describe how they have achieved the highest level of energy storage — also known as capacitance — in a supercapacitor ever recorded. The study, led by Luis Echegoyen, Ph.D., professor emeritus at The University of Texas at El Paso, and […]
