Kwangwoon University Professor Tae-Jun Ha’s (Department of Electronic Material Engineering) research team produced and applied functional fibers based on multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and gelatin. They succeeded in developing a moisture induction generator that can continuously generate electricity. The results of this study were published in Nano Energy (IF: 19.069, JIF ranking: 94.93%), the top international academic journal in the field of energy based on nano material technology published by Elsevier. It was published under the title "All-solution-processed wearable moist-electric generators based on engineered nanocomposites of carbon nanotube and gelatin incorporated with PEDOT:PSS interfacial blocking layer".
