Session: Composites for Energy Applications (2012 Annual Meeting)

743 Composites for Energy Applications

Thursday, November 1, 2012: 3:15 PM

Cambria East (Westin )

Description:

This session invites papers on composite materials used in energy applications. Such composite materials, in part ,include polymer composite materials with nanowires and/or quantum dots for solar cells, lithium ion battery, fuel cells,capacitors, and any other of energetic cells. Theoretical, modeling, or experimental work is welcome. The relationships between structure, processing, morphology, and properties are the key topics. New developments in matrix materials and filler and interfaces are encouraged to submit.
