Study shows how waste Styrofoam can be transformed into polymers for electronics

A new study conducted by researchers from the University of Delaware and Argonne National Laboratory describes a chemical reaction that can convert Styrofoam into a high-value conducting polymer known as PEDOT:PSS. Published in JACS Au, the study also demonstrates how upgraded plastic waste can be successfully incorporated into functional electronic devices, including silicon-based hybrid solar cells and organic electrochemical transistors. The research group of corresponding author Laure Kayser, assistant professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering in UD's College of Engineering with a joint appointment in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry in the College of Arts and Sciences, regularly works with PEDOT:PSS, a polymer that has both electronic and ionic conductivity, and was interested in finding ways to synthesize this material from plastic waste.

I want to add that the Blue Hen is Delaware’s bird, but out of all the colleges and universities, only ONE uses that fucking bird. The other university is a fucking hornet (HBCU) and the other is some kind of fucking dog??? I think???

Either way, the state is willing to die on this hill, even though 98$% of its population has never seen the damn bird

Honestly really embarrassing for you guys. You need to sort this stuff out with each other

New research expands our understanding of how electrons move in complex fluids

Thomas Edison went through thousands of materials before he finally found the right tungsten filament to create a working lightbulb. This type of trial-and-error research continues today and is responsible for countless inventions that improve our world. Battery systems that help power our lives in many seen (and unseen) ways are one example. However, improving these materials and devices requires more than experimentation. Modern engineers must also form a deeper understanding of the general principles that govern material performance, from which they can design better materials to achieve challenging product requirements. In a paper published Aug. 13 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, University of Delaware, Northwestern University and industry researchers report expanded understanding of how electrons move through the conductive parts of complex fluids called slurries that are found in electrochemical devices such as batteries and other energy storage devices.
