Sunday, April 12th, 2009Up until now the battery has been the weak link in the electric car. But with our new Carbon Nanotube Battery technology this will advance the electric car to the forfront. With a driving range of 350-380 miles and recharge time of 10 minutes this puts us on an equal footing with gasoline powered cars.

Paper battery could be future power
Saturday, April 11th, 2009Flexible paper batteries could meet the energy demands of the next generation of gadgets, says a team of researchers.
They have produced a sample slightly larger than a postage stamp that can store enough energy to illuminate a small light bulb.
But the ambition is to produce reams of paper that could one day power a car.

Nanotubes promise better battery electrodes
Saturday, April 11th, 2009Grow carbon nanotubes inside manganese dioxide nanotubes and you’ve got high-capacity, potentially inexpensive electrodes for lithium-ion batteries.
The electrodes are made by forming manganese dioxide nanotubes in a template, then growing carbon nanotubes inside the manganese dioxide nanotubes. Manganese dioxide is an abundant material, but researchers have had difficulty making efficient electrodes from it. The carbon [...]
Carbon Nanotubes Could Lengthen Battery Life
Friday, April 10th, 2009Carbon nanotubes tiny tubular structures composed of a single layer of carbon atoms could lengthen the life of batteries, according to new research. Findings published in the current issue of Physical Review Letters suggest that the diminutive tubes can hold twice as much energy as graphite, the form of carbon currently used as an electrode [...]
What is Nanotechnology
Friday, April 10th, 2009We have all heard the word nanotechnology have you ever wonder what is nanotechnology here is a brief description in layman’s terms.
Manufactured products are made from atoms. The properties of those products depend on how those atoms are arranged. If we rearrange the atoms in coal we can make diamond. If we rearrange the atoms [...]
Nano Tube Battery Technology
Friday, April 10th, 2009MIT Carbon Nanotube Research
Thursday, April 9th, 2009This is an interesting article that was publish in 2006 about MIT’s development of carbon nanotube technology and they mention that the “The markets that we serve are price-enabled. If our product stored a hundred times more energy, but cost a hundred times more, there might not be any market for it.” Well we have [...]
Use of Lithium-ion Batteries for Large Scale Applications
Thursday, April 9th, 2009Implications
After nine years of research and billions of dollars of testing ideas it is obvious that there is no technology or manufacturing process extant or on the horizon that can bring to the market a practical, economically competitive, lithium-ion battery that can be used in a power train for an electrified private passenger carrying motor [...]
The newest profitable investment today
Tuesday, April 7th, 2009In an economic downturn people are looking for new and exciting investment opportunities “the next big thing” well the Carbon Nano Tube Battery is just that thing. For the past 200 years batteries haven’t progressed far beyond the basic design developed by Alessandro Volta in the 19th century, until now.
First to Market in this case [...]
Next Generation Battery is Here
Saturday, April 4th, 2009This blog site was created to bring an awareness of the latest in new green battery technology and the opportunity for investment in this new product.
Carbon Nano Tube (CNT) are tiny tubular structures composed of a single layer of carbon atoms. MBTI has developed a propriety method of coating the anode, cathodes and modifying the [...]
