Researchers at Purdue University have developed a new method for synthesizing carbon sheets. A hydrothermal process was designed for rapid conversion of polyethylene, a commodity plastic, into carbon sheets. Polyethylene is significantly cheaper than polyacrylonitrile and the conversion process takes less overall time and temperature making it a superior method of producing carbon sheets. Advantages: -Low cost -Quicker than current methods Potential Applications: -Carbon sheet Parts -Battery Electrodes |
