Recent Developments:


Jan 2022
Scientists are planting balsa trees in the tropical climate of China's Yunnan region to assist in strengthening the country's position as the world leader in wind generation. Balsa, a craft material for constructing model airplanes, is a key wind turbine with huge blades. China's $60 billion wind sector sources almost all of its components domestically, although it must import lightweight wood elsewhere. Suppliers are scrambling to locate enough balsa as the country that manufactures the most turbines in the world pushes to deploy wind power at a blazing speed to meet ambitious climate ambitions. China is now attempting to develop its own to alleviate the shortage and minimize imports.

Jan 2022 In a promising class of solar materials, researchers have reached record efficiency. According to the researchers, the novel materials such as ultrathin photovoltaics could be employed in applications ranging from wearable devices and sensors that are self-powered among other potential application. One of the most significant advantages of these transition metal dichalcogenides, can absorb high levels of sunlight that reach their surface. According to the report circulated in Nature Communications, the autonomous drones that can power themselves using a solar array on top its wing that is 15 times thinner than a piece of paper are being researched by doctorate students in electrical engineering at Stanford University.

February 2021: Boston Materials, an advanced lightweight materials manufacturer, has begun the shipping of its Z-axis carbon fiber manufactured using a 60-inch-wide roll-to-roll line to its consumers in Europe and North America. The demand for Z-axis lightweight carbon fiber has been escalating in industries like electronics, transportation, and industrial, and therefore, the company expects the setting up of its latest industrial-scale manufacturing line to foster its customer base. The first shipment will be the SUPERCOMP product, a high-performance lightweight 3D carbon fiber materials that boost energy dissipation, manufacturability and vibration damping of lightweight composite structures.
