Carbon Micro-Coils

摘要

Carbon micro-coils which feature a marked increase in hydrogen occlusion capability per unit weight over both hydrogen occlusion alloys and carbon nano-tubes have been developed in experiments conducted by the CMC Technology Development Co., Ltd., in cooperation with Professor Seiji Moto-jima of Gifu University. With a diameter in the order of microns, these micro-coils are constructed from two thin carbon fibers twisted together like a rope and wound into coil form.
