Where Does Electromagnetic Interference Come From?

Is there any electronic product that can be called free from interference due to electric signals?   Simply No! What is this sound all about? In simple language, the electric signals that interfere with the normal functioning of the electronic equipment are electromagnetic interference. Every electronic and electric system, equipment creates some signal, which can hinder the normal functioning of another piece of equipment nearby. Not just this, EMI can lessen the functioning of the equipment, lead to operational faults, and even complete failure. Now, Where Does This EMI Comes From? EMI can either be self-generated, due to interference between two circuits in the equipment or created externally by some other equipment or device in the same environment. The earliest form of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI) comprised of spurious signals coming from radio transmitters that are disturbed by other radios. For instance, harmonics gene...

Understanding Graphene Powder Coating and its Applications

The current conventional way of powder coatings has been potentially updated with the promotion of graphene powder coating. Its properties have made the coating process environment-friendly, efficient, and energy-saving. It is widely used in the protective layering of metal surfaces in various industries, for instance, shipping, rail transit, road facilities, household appliances, electrical equipment, automotive parts, and many others.

About Silver Nanowires and Its Applications

  Silver Nanowires are nanomaterials with high electrical conductivity, resistance to oxidation, and great optical & antibacterial properties. Silver Nanowires also performs great in transparent conducting electrodes for touchscreens, solar cells, flexible displays, sensors, light-emitting diodes, etc. These nanowires can be included in many products like textiles, antibacterial bandages, and EMI shielding. Additionally, silver nanowires have been great as conductive fillers for combined applications. Now, it is essential that the minimum amount of silver is used for establishing the electrical connection in the final matrix, also known as the percolation threshold. Due to its high aspect ratio, silver nanowires can easily reach percolation at concentrations of less than 1%. With great electrical, optical, and thermal properties, silver nanowires have great possibilities for developing advanced technology applications. They are available in powder and dispersion form. The S...

Carbon Conductive Inks: Some of its Applications!

  The carbon-conductive inks are used as an inexpensive method of applying conductors and resistors to polyester films, conventional laminate, different forms of plastic, and other materials through the screen-printing process. It is used to replace gold, cross-over conductors, manufacture resistors, shielding surfaces, etc. The double-sided plated-through hole circuits were replaced by single-sided printed circuit boards. Hence, the carbon conductive ink system allows affordable and alternative concepts in printed circuit boards manufacturing.   When printed circuit boards are manufactured in medium and large series, cost-saving becomes an integral asset. Thus, the cost can be controlled by the replacement of overpriced raw materials with more affordable and economical ones and a simplified production process.   The replacement of gold with carbon conductive ink on contact points removes the requirement of using expensive raw materials and a time-consuming plating...

Nanotech Announces Non Flammable Battery

Dr, Richard Kaner, Phd- Ucla Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Materials, Science and Engineering: Every day we are surrounded by household items that are powered by lithium Ion batteries, including your cell phones, and your laptop computers. If a lithium-ion battery gets shot off, the energy gets released suddenly causing temperature to rise rapidly hundreds of degrees in milliseconds leading to the battery to catch on fire. Take the electric cars for example; there are thousands of lithium-Ion batteries that make up the battery pack. If they all catch on fire at the same time, the explosion is massive. They are so much concern about the lithium-ion batteries igniting that the U.S. has banned transporting them in cargo and passenger flights. Andreas Hintennach - Ph.D. Daimler-Mercedes Benz, Global Head of Battery Research: 3 years ago, we challenged Nanotech Energy to provide us the safest energy battery chemistry, non-flammable, and extremely safe. Dr Ja...

The Applications of Graphene Oxide Powder

Graphene was reported firstly in the year 2004 and was prepared with the use of mechanical exfoliate by the graphite. Due to its ratio of surface area and weight, it is used to store energy as it can increase the energy per volume. It can be used in super capacitors , conductive epoxies, conductive inks, super-batteries.  It is one of the most well approved 2D materials available and the reason behind it is a broad range of areas it is applicable in. It comes with a discrete benefit when compared to several other 2d materials because it is dispersed easily within the solution. This way it is allowed to process at higher concentrations and several applications have been opened up. Here follows the list of 7 of it: IN ELECTRODE MATERIAL Graphene Oxide Powder has a higher surface area. This is the reason why it is made ideal to be used for electrode material for batteries, solar cells, and capacitors. 2.        THE ELECTRONICS Graphene Oxi...
