Graphene composites for applications in the manufacturing and energy storage sectors
Affiliation: Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (Italian Institute of Technology, Genoa
Abstract Details: In this talk I shall present our recent progresses on the large-scale production of graphene, two-dimensional crystals and related composites for industrial applications. I will discuss different graphene compounds and related applications such reinforced coatings for electrical cables [1], plastic frames for glasses [2], motorcycle helmets [3], foldable biodegradable plastic [4], cellulosic graphene biocomposites sensors [5], and reinforced plastic components for robotics [6,7]. In the last part of the talk I will focus on energy conversion and storage [8] and, particularly, on our recent progresses on graphene-silicon Li-ion batteries [9,10,11].
