According to foreign media reports, a team led by Professor Lee Joo-hyuk from the Department of Energy Engineering at Daegu Kyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST) has developed a triboelectric generator based on ionic polyurethane, which has self-healing, biodegradable and high electropositive characteristics.
The research results have been published in the journal Nano Energy.
, Photo source: Nano Energy, the device is designed as a green energy device that minimizes the impact on the environment by promoting self-repair and biodegradation, while significantly improving power output performance through the use of ionic liquids.
Based on these characteristics, the device is expected to be used as a sustainable power source for the next generation of soft electronic devices and wearables.
