Journal Article
Ola, O., Niu, Q., Chen, Y., Xia, Y., & Zhu, Y. (2019). Carbon nanotube reinforced nanocomposites for energy conversion and storage. Journal of Power Sources, 443, Article 227277. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpowsour.2019.227277

CNT-reinforced foams comprised of three-dimensional (3D) interconnected macropores with uniform mesoporous walls were developed as multifunctional nanocomposites and tested for electrochemical energy conversion and storage. Multi-walled CNTs grown on... Read More about Carbon nanotube reinforced nanocomposites for energy conversion and storage.

Ultralight three-dimensional, carbon-based nanocomposites for thermal energy storage (2019)
Journal Article
Ola, O., Chen, Y., Niu, Q., Xia, Y., Mallick, T., & Zhu, Y. (2020). Ultralight three-dimensional, carbon-based nanocomposites for thermal energy storage. Journal of Materials Science and Technology, 36, 70-78. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmst.2019.06.014

Polymer based nanocomposites consisting of elastic three-dimensional (3D) carbon foam (CF), paraffin wax and graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) have been created and evaluated for thermal energy storage. The ultralight, highly porous (∼98.6% porosity), an... Read More about Ultralight three-dimensional, carbon-based nanocomposites for thermal energy storage.
