FendX Technologies Inc. a nanotechnology company developing surface protection coatings, is pleased to announce that Chinese Patent Number ZL 202080055337.6 has been granted, further strengthening...

TiO2-based materials are considered to be the promising anodes of sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) because of their high safety and good stability. However, their low specific capacity and high safety operating voltage plateau impose a severe challenge for high energy density batteries. Herein, interconnected micro-sheets consisting of carbon nanotubes and sulfur doped TiO2 (CNT/S-TiO2) are synthesized via an ultrasonic process and subsequent calcination, enabling the fabrication of high-performance ...

Nature may abhor a vacuum, but it sure loves structure. Complex, self-organized assemblies are found throughout the natural world, from double-helix DNA molecules to the photonic crystals that make butterfly wings so colorful and iridescent.
