Curved molecules that absorb sunlight, store the energy, and re-release it as heat are pushing the boundaries in solar thermal storage technology. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech ...
A team of materials scientists has developed a new bio based carbon material that can store thermal energy more efficiently ...
Using a thermal sensor smaller than a grain of sand, engineers have measured the vibrations, or phonons, within individual molecules. Imagine you are playing the guitar -- each pluck of a string ...
This structure was designed to act as a host for stearic acid, a common organic phase change material known for its high heat storage capacity but persistent leakage issues. The chitin-derived carbon ...
Curved molecules that absorb sunlight, store the energy, and re-release it as heat are pushing the boundaries in solar thermal storage technology. The anthracene systems, derived from a by-product of ...
