Laser-induced graphene is made from wood
September 8th, 2017Laser-induced graphene is made from wood Rice chemists have produced a catalyst based on laser-induced graphene that splits water into hydrogen on one side and oxygen on the other side. They said the inexpensive material may be a practical component in generating the hydrogen for use in future fuel cells. James Tour, the T.T. and […]
