Low-cost, durable, lightweight battery made from paper
Researcher Bing Hu paints a small square of ordinary paper with an ink that will deposit nanotubes on the surface that can then be charged with energy to create a battery
Article Summary
By dipping an ordinary piece of paper into ink infused with carbon nanotubes and silver nanowires, scientists have been able to create a low-cost battery or supercapacitor that is ultra-lightweight, bendable and very durable. The paper can be crumpled, folded or even soaked in acidic or basic solutions and still will work.
