No ideas on how to further improve the performance of #piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride (#PVDF)? Here is an alternative approach (multilayered #triboelectric architectures) that can be combined with the existing methods: Thanks for collab @NanoIn3D

Absolutely fantastic work from @NanoIn3D reporting enhanced hydrogen evaluation reaction by exploiting piezoelectricity. I am proud to have the chance to contribute.

In the project TriboCharge, “Controlling and exploiting triboelectric effect in polymers for mechanical-to-electrical-chemical conversion,” I will investigate the origin of static charge, how to introduce this charge in the volume of materials, and how to exploit it in synthesis.

My @ERC_Research journey has ended with a positive outcome. After receiving an “A” score after the interview, full funding was granted from the EU Regional Development Fund Latvia @CFLA_gov_lv. Thanks to everyone involved, especially my colleagues at Alma Mater @RTU_LV.

Iespēja noklausīties atklāto lekciju @RTU un uzzināt par statiskā lādiņa izpausmēm apkārtējā vidē, tā veidošanās fizikāli-ķīmiskiem mehānismiem un veidiem, kā to kontrolēt un pielietot. Priekšlasījums 11. februārī 16:30 būs latviešu valodā, Āzenes ielā 12 k-1, 115. auditorijā.

Adding #MOF to the polyether block amide polymer can obtain a way more negative #triboelectric material than Teflon. Find more in our recent OA paper:.

This happens when you try to handle #triboelectric laminates from #electrospun polymer nanofibers. 🤪 Find out more about these materials in our recent papers: and @AdvSciNews. Thanks, @Zinatnespadome, for funding.
