Paper Batteries To Power Laptops,Drive Cars


Scientists at Stanford University,USA,have reported that they have successfully turned a specific type of paper coated with ink made of silver &carbon nanomaterials into a "Paper Battery".There is a specific feature which helps ink stick to the surface of paper.The same feature also allows it to hold on to the single-walled carbon nanotubes & silver nanowire films.Taking advantage of the mature paper technology,low-cost & high-performance energy storage are realised by using conductive paper as current collectors and electrodes.this type of battery could be useful in powering electric or hybrid vehicles.The best part about the new battery is that in addition to being useful for portable electronics & wearable electronics,the paper supercapitators can also be used for all kinds of applications that require instant high power.
