Superconductors wonderfully transfer electrical energy, it is considerably faster and more effective than materials, utilized in small batteries ; however, they are not actually capable of batteries charge. The group of scientists from the University of Texas in Austin is ready to dispute this assertion due to the new material, which is porous three-dimensional carbon.
This material was obtained by the stratification of oxide graphite with the aid of microwaves. Obtained thus carbon possessed the superconductive properties, with the thickness in all one atom. The surface area of one gram obtained material is 3100 square meters. With two grams it is possible already to cover football field.
The treatment of material described above by hydroxide of potassium led to the creation in carbon of a large quantity of tiny times, which in combination with the electrolyte could store electric charge . According to the professor Rodney S. Ruoff, this material possesses ideal properties for superconductor, and industry is completely ready to its production. Related Products :
