The proposed research aims to design, develop and create new nanostructured materials for ener-gy storage device applications by combining the multiple-jet elec-tro-spinning/-blowing technology with novel chemical and physical pathways to prepare functional organic/inorganic nanocomposite membranes.
The new format should have unique electrical conducting and mechanical properties as well as tailor-designed functionality, with immediate applications to battery (e.g. new anodes and cathodes) and fuel cell (e.g. catalyst support membranes) development. (NIH)
