The addition of buck balls to cable insulation plastics can increase power transmission by 26%.
Swedish researchers recently said that adding bucky balls to the insulating plastic around high-voltage cables can increase transmission by 26%.
The buck ball, also known as C60, full name buckminster fullerene, contains 60 carbon atoms arranged in the shape of a football
.
Bucky balls have unique electronic qualities, but they are still not used
on a large scale in the industry.
Now, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology and Borealis in Sweden say buck balls can realize value
as additives in insulated cable plastics.
In order to prevent damage to the insulation, today's cables are limited in voltage
.
However, the team found that adding buck balls to the plastic around the high-voltage cable increased transmission
by 26 percent without the plastic breaking down.
Bucky balls trap electrons, preventing them from destroying other molecules
that make up the plastic.
The application of this technology will greatly promote the power sector, especially the renewable energy field
.
New technologies enable wind turbines located offshore and solar panels in the desert to transmit more power
to users over long distances.
"Reducing energy losses in transmission is one of the most important factors in the energy system of
the future.
" Christian Müller, a researcher at Chalmers University of Technology, said: "The other two important factors are renewable energy development and energy storage technologies
.
”
For now, the researchers will test this bucky ball technique
in large AC and DC cables.
