Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, have recently developed a new method to create tiny 3D materials that would improve the efficiency of fuel cells and batteries and help make them more sustainable. The new innovative approach produces 3D nanoscale materials with novel physical and chemical properties, including high surface area and high conductivity.
Published in the journal Science Advances, the UNSW team describes how their synthetic concept delivers a new kind…
