Meredith Poor + 893 MP May 22 An Electrifying Improvement in Copper Conductivity https://www.pnnl.gov/news-media/electrifying-improvement-copper-conductivity CNT Wire - Superwire https://www.boronite.com/cnt-wire.html The former improves conductivity of copper wire at higher temperatures. The latter replaces some or all copper in wires, including aircraft cables and motor windings. CNT wire isn't yet economically viable, however rising copper prices certainly incentivize more R&D and investment in the space. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TailingsPond + 633 GE May 22 There is already plenty of incentives for graphene and nanotube research for other reasons. Small devices are much more likely to use them than for something like copper wire, but it could happen. Copper is already an excellent conductor...
