Hydrothermal synthesis of MnO2/CNT nanocomposite with a CNT core/porous MnO2 sheath hierarchy architecture for supercapacitors

MnO2/carbon nanotube [CNT] nanocomposites with a CNT core/porous MnO2 sheath hierarchy architecture are synthesized by a simple hydrothermal treatment. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy analyses reveal that birnessite-type MnO2 is produced through the hydrothermal synthesis. Morphological characterization reveals that three-dimensional hierarchy architecture is built with a highly porous...

3d Printing with Natural Fiber Reinforced Filament

An initial study of 3d printing with compound filament using different plastic matrices and sugar cane bagasse as the filler was conducted. In order to do this, a reverse engineering process was made to several 3d printer extruders to determine how to change the extruder in order to be able to print with the filament. To obtain the filament, a plastic extruder was modified to obtain a compound ...

GermaniumÕcarbon core–sheath nanostructures

Germanium/carbon core–sheath nanostructures and junctions are produced when Ge nanowires are subject to a thermal treatment in an organic vapor doped vacuum. The organic molecules pyrolyze on the surface of the Ge nanowires and form a continuous graphitic coating. The carbon-sheathed Ge nanowires undergo melting and evaporation at high temperature, which results in the formation of germanium/ca...

High-Performance Lithium-Air Battery with a Coaxial-Fiber Architecture.

The lithium-air battery has been proposed as the next-generation energy-storage device with a much higher energy density compared with the conventional lithium-ion battery. However, lithium-air batteries currently suffer enormous problems including parasitic reactions, low recyclability in air, degradation, and leakage of liquid electrolyte. Besides, they are designed into a rigid bulk structur...
