The value indicated by the meter when measuring low conductivity samples such as pure water, semiconductor cleaning water, boiler water, tap water, groundwater, river water, or rainwater, is generally ...

Defying conventional scientific knowledge about electrical conductivity, the addition of a common carbon compound to copper to make electrical wires results in significant performance enhancements, ...

Conductivity sensors can do more than just measure conductivity. Calculated values from the M800 Transmitter using conductivity data can provide valuable cycle chemistry information, confirm on-line ...

A study, led by Tingting Zuo, was based on the idea of in-situ growth, and a series of Cu/Gr composites with improved interfaces were prepared by vacuum hot press sintering. Combined with cold-drawing ...

A newly developed, highly conductive copper wire could find applications in the electric grid, as well as in homes and businesses. The finding defies what's been thought about how metals conduct ...

Anisotropy in action: artistic visualization of a propagating heat wave getting weaker as it approaches the top of the layered material, while spreading out in other directions. (Courtesy: ...

The quest to maximize electric vehicle efficiency — in driving and charging — and to lower the risk of fires has engineers at automakers and elsewhere looking at everything under the hood, including ...

Using four-photon scattering, Purdue University researchers found that graphene's thermal qualities might not be as groundbreaking as first believed. Image Credit: Kateryna Kon/Shutterstock.com ...

As electric cars grow in popularity, automobile makers are looking to pack more energy per volume into the cars’ batteries. One possible approach is to use batteries with lithium-metal anodes and ...

The two main types of boron nitride used in industry are hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) and cubic boron nitride (c-BN). h-BN, particularly in its 2D form, is a stable material with electrical ...
