For the 2018 Callaway Chrome Soft ball a new Graphene Dual SoftFast Core is undoubtedly the headline change. It sees graphene – a material stronger than diamond – infused into the outer core. By using a stronger material, the outer core could be made thinner, which in turn allows for a larger, but …

University of Arkansas Research May Lead to New Source of Green Energy
Thibado and his colleague, assistant professor Pradeep Kumar, discovered the potential of two-dimensional materials while observing the motion of graphene, a two-dimensional form of carbon, mounted on a copper grid. Using a high-powered microscope, they observed that the freestanding graphene …
Crumpled graphene balls to enhance Li-ion batteries by preventing dendrite growth
Researchers at Northwestern University in the U.S have designed a way to use “crumpled graphene balls” to improve Li-ion batteries. The team explained that in current batteries, lithium is usually atomically distributed in another material like graphite or silicon in the anode. However, using an additional …
Building better batteries using crumpled graphene balls
The team at Northwestern University’s approach actually builds on a type of graphene it developed back in 2011. Literally taking inspiration from a trashcan of scrunched up paper, the engineers came up with a way of crumpling graphene sheets into balls by first atomizing them into tiny water droplets.
UK Researcher Unveils World's First Automotive Graphene Composite Component Prototype
Ahmed Elmarakbi, an automotive composites professor at the University of Sunderland (UK), has produced a prototype of the world’s first graphene composite component for an automotive application. Elmarakbi is leading Task 10.11 – Composites for Automotive, part of the European Commission’s …
2-D tin (stanene) without buckling: A possible topological insulator
In its wake have followed a host of “post-graphene materials” – structural analogues of graphene made of other elements like silicon or germanium. Now, an international … Just as graphene differs from ordinary graphite, so does stanene behave very differently to humble tin in bulk form. Because of …
Polymer Nanocomposites for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding – Computing and Technology …
The book explores the use of polymer composites with carbon nanomaterials (such as single walled carbon nanotubes, multiwalled carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, and graphene) providing the required level of conductivity. In comparison to conventional metal-based EMI shielding materials, …
