The surface properties of polymeric materials are central to their behavior in formulation and manufacturing processes, as well as in their target applications. The atomic force microscope (AFM) is a powerful tool for characterising polymer surfaces at the nanoscale. It provides not only surface morphology, but also phase contrast between different components in polymer blends.
Invinity to build 20MWh flow battery in UK
Redux flow cells have had nowhere near the R+D effort compared to Lithium ion. They certainly have the potential (pun not intended) for longer...
