  • Undecided - How This Nanotechnology is Changing Batteries, 25102022

    “How sustainable?” are lithium ion batteries? Between the supply chain issues of the past couple of years and inflation, the cost of key materials like lithium have also skyrocketed. Is there enough lithium? How do we extract it quickly and safely? And is there a better way to build batteries that can reduce the complexity of materials we need to build them? There’s a company bringing an interesting piece of nanotechnology to market that may have an answer to those questions

  • Joe Scott - So Where Exactly Are We With Nanotechnology, 21032022

    We've been hearing for years how nanotechnology is going to change the world. In movies and in headlines, nanotechnology is almost like "future magic" that will make the impossible possible. But how realistic are those predictions? And how close are we to seeing some of them come true

  • Just have a Think - New 2022 graphene battery launch : 8 minute charge time. 350 mile range, 26062022

    Graphene nanotechnology is set to be one of the most exciting and ground breaking technologies of the 21st century. Nanotechnology has already revolutionised medicine, construction and industry. And now graphene is about to become a reality in electric vehicle batteries, increasing energy density by 40% or more, and reducing charge times to just a few minutes. Is this the push we've been waiting for to move EVs into the mainstream?

  • Undecided - How Nanotech Can Help Solve the Fresh Water Crisis, 14122021

    Exploring Groundbreaking Nanotech for the Fresh Water Crisis? By 2025 two thirds of the global population may experience water scarcity, so there's a fresh water crisis coming. And that’s because of global warming driven droughts. Supply cuts are looming in Southwestern USA and water is fueling wars across the world. There’s a sea of desalination technologies coming up. Like solar domes in the desert or nanofibre technology membranes and other nanomaterials making seawater drinkable in minutes
