 Indian scientists develop "Black gold" a wonderful material. What is black gold ? Scientists at the Mumbai-based Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) used gold nanoparticles and by rearranging size and gaps between them developed a new material which has unique properties. Such as capacity to absorb light and carbon dioxide (CO2). Gold doesn't have these properties, therefore ‘black gold’ is being called a new material. In appearance it is black, hence the name ‘black gold’ They have not doped gold nanoparticles with any other material or added other materials. They varied inter-particle distance between gold nanoparticles using a cycle-by-cycle growth approach by optimizing the nucleation growth step, using dendritic fibrous nanosilica. Which fibers were used as the deposition site for gold nanoparticles. Black Gold can act as Artificial Tree :- Black gold could also act as a catalyst and could convert CO2 into methane (CH4) at atmospheric pressure and temperat...

 How to work Aloe-E-cell ? The Great revolution on Battery world! The Indian startup NIMISHA & NAVEEN make a revolution on battery world. We know battery are generally obtained Non ferrous metals and minerals featuring highly in Li-ion batteries are lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, graphite, copper and aluminium. The first four of these are used primarily as active cathode material, at thought lithium is also used in electrolyte. But in the case of Aloe-e-cell aloe vera can replacing toxic metals like lead and lithium. This green-e-cell's that's both eco-friendly and non-hazardous.   Generally normal lithium - ion battery work on electrochemical reaction phenomenon like  [ In an electrochemical cell's electrons are produced by a chemical reaction that happens at one electrode and then they flow over to the other electrode where they are used up. Each electrochemical cell consists of the electrodes separated by an electrolyte. The electrons flow from one e...
