Periodic Reporting for period 1 - Hy-MAC (HYBRID MAGNETIC SUPERCAPACITORS)
Reporting period: 2016-06-01 to 2017-11-30
During the project, we have explored successfully the scaling up of the synthesis, up to pilot level, optimizing the synthesis conditions. Following that, we have focused in the optimisation of the electrode, finding the optimum loading level of the nanoparticles, and optimizing the applied magnetic field and the duration of its application to yield the best cost/performance ratio. Finally, we have started negotiations with a series of companies (from material producers to supercapacitors makers to final users) to test the developed devices under industrial standards, in order to achieve a successful transfer of the technology to the industry.
