Week 3 Review

During the past week, Nick and I were trained in the techniques of various performance analysis tests that are able to be run on calcinated nanofibers, which included both the cyclic voltammetry and cyclic charge-discharge tests. The ability to be able to perform these tests will allow us to analyze our product nanofibers and to hopefully compare their efficiencies to that of the other conductive material.

As for the electrospinner itself, Travis and Nikita believe that they are finished with the optimizations; however, unfortunately, we were not able to test their optimized design due to a lack of lab space, which will hopefully be resolved soon.
