Selective wetting-induced micro-electrode patterning is used to fabricate flexible micro-supercapacitors (mSCs). The resulting mSCs exhibit high performance, mechanical stability, stable cycle life, and hold great promise for facile integration into flexible devices requiring on-chip energy storage.

in this paper, the effect of cationic and anionic ion sizes on the charge storage capability of graphene nanosheets is investigated. the electrochemical properties of the produced electrode are studied using cyclic voltammetry (cv) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) techniques in 3m nacl, naoh, and koh electrolytes. scanning electron microscopy (sem) is used to characterize the mi...

BACKGROUND Isoflurane enhances mechanical function in hearts subject to normothermic global or regional ischemia. The authors examined the effectiveness of isoflurane in preserving mechanical function in hearts subjected to cardioplegic arrest and prolonged hypothermic no-flow storage. The role of isoflurane in altering myocardial glucose metabolism during storage and reperfusion during these c...

Abstract: The big share of electrical breakdown in electrical devices failure among other factors is caused by multitasking such as electrical insulation, mechanical support, energy dissipation, Energy storage, etc. which brings many attentions to lifetime estimation of said insulation material. Up to now, there was no-general theory had been suggested for lifetime estimation of mentioned insul...

The interest in energy storage is currently increasing, especially from the perspectives of matching intermittent sources of renewable energy with customer demand and storing excess nuclear or thermal power during the daily cycle. Technologies to be considered for load leveling for large-scale energy systems, typically in the range of hours to days of discharge time, include pumped-storage hydr...

In this study, effect of MAPE (maleic anhydride polyethylene) as the compatibilizer on the mechanical properties of wood-flour polyethylene composites has been investigated by using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA). Composites were made at 25% and 50% by weight fiber contents and 1% and 2% compatibilizer respectively. Controls were also made at the same fiber contents without the compatibilize...
