This performance published today highlights the unique capabilities of halloysite nanotubes.

Toay's NR:
"Natural Nanotech’s projects with GICAN are directed at developing commercially attractive solutions for a range of environmental issues using nano-porous materials synthesised from natural halloysite-kaolin mixtures. Previous research has highlighted outstanding potential for adsorbent-related applications in a broad range of areas including carbon capture and conversion, hydrogen storage and transport, remediation of water and wastewater, energy storage technologies, and antibacterial and agricultural applications. The unique properties of Great White Project halloysite-derived nanomaterials that make them so amenable to these applications are their enormous surface area per unit weight, their porous nature and differential charge capabilities between inner and outer surfaces."

Hopefully there will be a specific research agreement with GICAN very soon for halloysite derived nanomaterials for energy storage applications e.g. lithium ion batterries and supercapacitors.

James Marsh showed us the batteries at the Brisbane conference. He commented that it is not clear which of the applications that GICAN is working on will be commercialised first.

I guess there's always a possibility that an industry behemoth e.g. Panasonic will look to JV a particular application like LiBs. Unlike the carbon capture application the batteries are already being made by GICAN.

That would be a nice surprise.
