Mechanical, electrical and microstructural characterisation of multifunctional structural power composites (2014)
Journal Article
Greenhalgh, E., Ankersen, J., Asp, L., Bismarck, A., Fontana, Q., Houlle, M., …Wienrich, M. (2015). Mechanical, electrical and microstructural characterisation of multifunctional structural power composites. Journal of Composite Materials, 49(15), 1823-1834. https://doi.org/10.1177/0021998314554125

Multifunctional composites which can fulfil more than one role within a system have attracted considerable interest. This work focusses on structural supercapacitors which simultaneously carry mechanical load whilst storing/delivering electrical ener...

Multifunctional structural energy storage composite supercapacitors (2014)
Journal Article
Shirshova, N., Qian, H., Houlle, M., Steinke, J., Kucernak, A., Fontana, Q., …Shaffer, M. (2014). Multifunctional structural energy storage composite supercapacitors. Faraday Discussions, 172, 81-103. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4fd00055b

This paper addresses the challenge of producing multifunctional composites that can simultaneously carry mechanical loads whilst storing (and delivering) electrical energy. The embodiment is a structural supercapacitor built around laminated structur... Read More about Multifunctional structural energy storage composite supercapacitors.

Non-aqueous high internal phase emulsion templates for synthesis of macroporous polymers in situ filled with cyclic carbonate electrolytes (2014)
Journal Article
Kot, E., Shirshova, N., Bismarck, A., & Steinke, J. (2014). Non-aqueous high internal phase emulsion templates for synthesis of macroporous polymers in situ filled with cyclic carbonate electrolytes. RSC Advances, 4(22), 11512-11519. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4ra00118d

In order to develop inks suitable for roll-to-roll printing processes, which can be cured into in situ electrolyte filled high porosity macroporous polymer membranes, non-aqueous high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) were prepared. The external phase... Read More about Non-aqueous high internal phase emulsion templates for synthesis of macroporous polymers in situ filled with cyclic carbonate electrolytes.
