MIT Develop New Material which can Generate Energy from Water Vapour
MIT
engineers have developed a new polymer film which can take advantage of
the chemical energy in a water gradient and turn it into mechanical
energy; which in turn can then be converted into electricity.The film is
made from an interlocking network of polypyrrole, which forms a hard
but flexible matrix that provides structural support, and polyol-borate,
which is a soft gel that swells when it absorbs water.When the
plyol-borate (which is on the bottom of the polymer film) absorbs water,
even the tiniest amount, it expands, forcing the film to…Read more...http://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/MIT-Develop-New-Material-which-can-Generate-Energy-from-Water-Vapour.html
