Scientists have invented a 'super' supercapacitor made from bourbon stillage that stores 25 times more energy than current ...

Can you make a supercapacitor from kapton tape? Yep! Using a laser, we can decompose the Kapton (polyimide) into a graphene ...

University of Kentucky researchers have converted bourbon stillage, the sticky organic residue left after distillation, into ...

A capacitor is like a high-speed battery that can quickly store and release energy. What happens when it becomes 'super?' Researchers have potential solutions to improve energy-efficiency. Researchers ...

The state of Kentucky produces 95% of the world's bourbon, and all that bourbon leaves behind an enormous amount of waste ...

What do , , , and have in common? They can be engineered into strange, but functional, energy storage devices called supercapacitors. Like their name suggests, supercapacitors are like capacitors with ...

Supercapacitors rely mostly on double-layer capacitance to bridge the divide between chemical batteries and traditional ...

A recent article in Battery Energy outlines a method for converting cigarette filter waste (CFW) into carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) through a single-step, low-impact pyrolysis process. The goal is to ...

Graphene has been very hot in scientific circles since it was first produced in 2004. This one-atom thick layer of carbon has been found to have such remarkable properties that its discoverers were ...
