Water vapor fuelled brine-silk cocoon protein bio-battery for a self-lighting kettle and water-vapor panels

2022-06-22

Abstract excerpt

Water vapor increases the electrical conductivity of silk cocoons, human hair, jute, and corn silk. This phenomenon is unclear. In the present study, XPS analysis of cocoons showed that water vapor reduces the surface presence of low-energy carbon species (C-C, C-H). In contrast, electron-dense, high-energy carbon species (C-N, C = C, C = O) remained unchanged, possibly enhancing surface charge hopping. While wate...
