Lovely write up of our @APSphysics article on stick-slip motion causing electrification in droplets by @physorg_com
This work flips droplet charging on its head, showing it happens dry to wet as well as wet to dry!

Wonderful to lead this with @dr_joeberry.
It's amazing that we still are finding out things ⚡️about something as simple as a water droplet! 💧 - this is why I got into science in the first place! ❤️
Have a read of the article in @APSphysics #PRL here:

Researchers from RMIT University and @UniMelb have discovered #water generates an #electrical #charge up to 10 times greater than previously understood when it moves across a surface.💧Read more: rmit.edu.au/news/all-news/20…

We're really excited about this work transforming #waste #polymers into #sustainable #energyharvesters, led out of @ResearchRMIT and with @AndrisSutka from Riga Technical University.
Read the work our innovation is based on here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

This new invention turns packaging waste into a device that can harvest static #electricity from motion and wind. ⚡️🎈

Our perspective on #electrocataylsis for #GreenChemistry is online in #AdvancedEnergyandSustainabilityResearch.
We tackle challenges facing cataylsis from Data Reporting 🔢to Characterisation 🔬 and Operating Conditions🔥

Using Titanium Dioxide to split water seems an incredibly bad idea? 🤦♂️ - unless you decouple the half reactions. 🪓
In new research from @AndrisSutka and @ResearchRMIT we show how.

Great to be at #S24MRS to give an invited talk on our work understanding polymer energy harvesters.
Has been a wonderful event with great discussions with new and old friends and collaborators.
Thank you to the symposium organisers!
