Chinese researchers develop a friction electric generator
ArabiaWeather - Chinese experts were able to develop a new material for use in power generation. Specialists call this new material “Energy Harvesting”, which means “energy harvesting” in Arabic. Small amounts of electrical energy are generated through it from temperature differences or from daily movements performed by humans, for example, or machines. This energy can be used to power small mobile devices.
There is a possibility to generate this energy using what is known as the coefficient of electrical friction, during which electric charges are produced in two materials when they are attached and then separated. These electrostatic charges can then, through what is known as electrostatic induction, generate an electric current in an electrical conductor. Years ago, Wang had already developed a friction-generated nanogenerator he called Ting. Then he continued to develop it, and called the generation developed from it Sting, which is the name resulting from adding the letter S, which abbreviated the English word skin, which means skin, to the original name Ting, which is a transparent generator of about 96 percent.
It is also possible to stretch a sting just over 2 millimeters thick to more than 10 times its length to generate more energy than at rest, Wang and colleagues explain in the journal Science Advances. These special properties are made possible by an electrolyte of a special kind, a hydrogel with a chloride-containing acrylamide complex
