Vertically Aligned Graphene sheets Based Coatings as Nano-micro-structured Electrodes for Enhanced Performance of Supercapacitors

Hensley D.K., Hu M.Z., Hunt A., Jang G.G., Jiang Y., Keum J.K., Li L., Moon K-S, Song B., Wong C.P., Oak Ridge National Laboratory, US

This work develops a molecular engineering approach to control the interspacing of graphene sheets and then an external field approach to induce the re-orientation of the graphene sheets during the deposition process to form a [...]

Scalable Manufacturing of Nanopowders by Solution Combustion Processing

Brandenburg T., Dressler D., Hunt A., Johnson S., Stieha J., Venugopal G., Webster D., nGimat LLC, US

For the past several decades, gas-phase combustion processing has been used to produce nanomaterials like titanium dioxide and carbon-black in tonnage. These processes are restricted to the production of simple, single-element or single-metal compositions, primarily [...]

Nanomaterials for Desulfurization & Hydrogen Generation

Hunt A., Sapp M., Unfried K., Venugopal G., Vylkov N., nGimat Co., US

Energy R&D is being driven by concerns about global warming and air pollution largely attributed to pollutants from the burning of fossil fuels. While long-term energy strategies may call for the complete replacement of petroleum-based [...]

Carbon Supported Pt Nanomaterials for Fuel Cell Applications Using Combustion Chemical Vapor Condensation

Breitkopf R., Hunt A., Hwang J., Maniei F., MicroCoating Technologies, US

PEM Fuel cells have enormous promise as the power source for next generation vehicles. Several missing pieces exist with state of the art technology that prevent immediate implementation due to cost constraints. One large cost [...]

A Versatile Nanofabrication Technology for Polymer / Inorganic Composites for Fuel Cell and Pulse Power Applications

Breitkopf R., Faguy P., Hunt A., Hwang J., Lee S., MicroCoating Technologies, Inc., US

An innovative atomizer, capable of producing sub-micron size droplets, in conjunction with Combustion Chemical Vapor Deposition (CCVD), a flame based technique have demonstrated the capability to produce nanoscale hybrid materials with morphological, compositional and internal [...]
