The findings were published in this month's issue of the Chemical Engineering Journal, a peer reviewed journal published by global scientific publications firm, Elsevier.Two researchers from the Smart Materials Research Laboratory (SMRL) at IIT Roorkee have claimed to have developed an advanced material for capacitor manufacturing that operates efficiently under very low electric field conditions.
This, the researchers - KL Yadav and Amiya Mandal - claimed, makes it ideal for energy storage, adding that "the invention could transform the domestic electric vehicle (EV) sector by enabling the production of smaller, high-performance capacitors with enhanced ability for energy storage when paired with lithium batteries".
The material, a dielectric ceramic, is environmental friendly and cost-effective, they said. The findings were published in this month's issue of the Chemical Engineering Journal, a peer reviewed journal published by global scientific publications firm, Elsevier.
