Prototype purple fabric reflects 87.6% of sunlight
Zhengzhou and Adelaide researchers built the textile with a purple metal-organic framework and zinc oxide nanoparticles.
Químicas, densidade, custos, gigafábricas: armazenar energia melhor, mais barato e mais depressa.
A bateria tornou-se uma indústria de pleno direito, e esta secção trata-a como tal: químicas (lítio-ferro-fosfato, sódio-ião, eletrólitos sólidos), densidades a subir, custos por quilowatt-hora em queda, gigafábricas a nascer da China à Hungria. Acompanhamos também a segunda vida e a reciclagem das células — o circuito que transformará um problema de matérias-primas num recurso.
O nosso ângulo: a medida antes da promessa. Um anúncio de laboratório só entra aqui com números — ciclos, densidade, custo — e o artigo diz sempre a que distância está da produção. Os atores asiáticos, que concentram o essencial do mercado e da inovação, ocupam o lugar que a imprensa quase nunca lhes dá: CATL, BYD, EVE, mas também os fabricantes de equipamentos e os químicos cujo nome ninguém escreve.
