Hemp-based carbon Nanosheets outperform standard Supercapacitors by nearly 200%.

Most people don’t understand the truly diverse value of hemp (Cannabis sativa). Cultures have depended on this hardy plant for centuries for clothing, fabric, and paper. Today, it is also used for food, fuel, medicine, building materials, and plastics. Now the energy storage industry is starting to take notice, thanks to new Canadian research that shows supercapacitors with electrodes made from hemp-based carbon nanosheets outperform standard supercapacitors by nearly 200%. 


Researchers at the University of Alberta/National Institute for Nanotechnology (NINT) NRC, and Alberta Innovates-Technology Futures, led by chemical and materials engineering Professor David Mitlin, developed a process for converting fibrous hemp waste into a unique graphene-like nanomaterial that outperforms graphene. What’s more, it can be manufactured for less than $500 per ton

is there anything that this miracle plant is not good for?
you can probably just about try it on anything and get a positive result, or better yet, get on it and then do that thing

exactly its a miracle plant... no wonder its forbidden :/ time to fight against that corrupcy.

I believe hemp to be one of the most useful raw materials on the planet. When you look at what it can do in a multitude of ways, it boggles the mind! Food, paper, textiles, industrial, housing and many, many more applications make hemp awesome!

it is truly the healing of the nation and will free the human race from slavery.. still a long way to go. Bless my brother !
