Alhamdulillah! Our article “Synthetic Polymer Separators for Next-Generation Supercapacitors: Recent Progress and Future Direction” has been published online. 🔗 Welcome to read: https://lnkd.in/g_cPwcBC Supercapacitors are emerging as key energy storage devices due to their rapid charging/discharging capability, high power density, and excellent cycling stability. However, the separator, one of the most critical components, still faces major challenges such as low thermal resistance, high self-discharge, and limited mechanical strength. In this review, we explore the latest advancements in synthetic polymer-based separators, including materials, structural designs, and fabrication strategies. The work highlights how polymers like PVDF, PP, PAN, and PVA are being engineered to enhance ionic conductivity, thermal stability, and long-term performance of next-generation supercapacitors. By addressing these challenges, our study provides a roadmap toward high-performance, reliable, and cost-efficient energy storage solutions. Heartfelt thanks and congratulations to all authors for their invaluable contributions.

How do you recover more solvent without risking polymerization? A major chemical manufacturer faced this challenge during styrene purification: losing both solvent and revenue due to heat sensitivity and fouling risks. By integrating a ROTOTHERM® thin-film evaporator, they increased solvent recovery to over 96%, reduced styrene carryover, and saved $300,000+ annually, all without a major system overhaul. Read the full case study to see how thin-film evaporation delivers consistent, measurable improvements: https://lnkd.in/eWBMD68V #CaseStudy #ArtisanIndustries #ROTOTHERM #Engineering #Plastics

The Plate: The True Heart of a Lead-Acid Battery We're used to thinking of batteries as simple black boxes that give us power. But have you ever wondered what truly makes them efficient and reliable? The answer lies in their core component: the plate. In a lead-acid battery, the plate isn't just a part; it's the key element that dictates performance, lifespan, and resilience. The quality of the plate and its lead oxide composition aren't minor details—they're the foundation for an excellent product. Why is the plate so fundamental? * Reaction Surface: A well-designed plate maximizes the area for the electrochemical reaction, ensuring a greater capacity to store and release energy. * Corrosion Resistance: Advanced alloys and high-quality manufacturing processes protect the plate from wear, significantly extending the battery's life. * Low Internal Resistance: Less resistance means more efficiency, less heat, and a faster, safer charge/discharge cycle. In a world where the demand for reliable power is constantly growing, quality isn't an option. It's the standard on which we build the future. If you work in the industry or are simply passionate about technology, join the conversation: what do you think sets a high-quality battery apart from the rest? #Batteries #Technology #LeadAcid #EnergyEfficiency #Quality #Innovation
