Chapter 75 Research
The nuclear energy characteristic of the barite battery is an extremely incomplete nuclear transformation reaction.
A large amount of mass is consumed, and the efficiency of energy release is countless times lower than that of real nuclear fission.
The advantage is that its extremely incomplete nuclear reaction is a relatively continuous and long process, which is not dangerous and does not involve any radioactive factors.
In addition, the energy density of this battery is up to thirty times that of the best battery in the world today.
——For a battery of the same weight, the energy storage of the heavy crystal battery is more than thirty times that of other batteries.
With ten times the energy released, you can imagine the value of this battery.
The manufacturing process of barite batteries is not difficult, but its manufacturing requires a special element - a silicon isotope rubbed out by Jiang Shan's hands.
Jiang Shan tried to produce this silicon isotope using technological means, but found it difficult.
This silicon isotope can only be produced during nuclear fission; that is to say, if one wants to produce this isotope through technological means, one can only obtain it by conducting a nuclear reaction.
To be precise, it can only be produced when a fusion reaction of silicon occurs.
Silicon fusion belongs to the category of heavy nuclear fusion, and with current scientific and technological means, it is almost impossible to achieve the conditions for heavy nuclear fusion.
Before the development of controllable heavy-nuclear fusion technology, Jiang Shan was unable to use scientific and technological means to mass-produce this silicon isotope. Only the unscientific skill of decomposition and recombination could allow Jiang Shan to rub out this incomplete heavy-nuclear fusion product with his hands.
Fortunately, the amount of silicon isotopes required to manufacture baryte batteries is extremely small; one ton of baryte batteries only requires one gram of silicon isotopes.
Jiang Shan can now rub out half a pound, or about 250 grams, of silicon isotopes at a time within a controllable range.
The color of silicon isotopes is similar to that of silver, and its strength is very low, only slightly higher than that of plasticine. It is easy to store, only requires a cool and dry environment, is resistant to high temperatures, will not explode, and is not radioactive, just like ordinary stones.
These days, Jiang Shan rubs it whenever he has time. He rubs it a hundred times a day and makes nuclear explosions, which yields 25 kilograms of silicon isotopes. After two months, he has accumulated more than 1,500 kilograms of solid silicon isotopes.
If it is used to manufacture barite batteries, 1.5 million tons can be produced.
Currently in China, based on this year's data, the installed capacity of power batteries is about 400GKh, which is equivalent to 400 million kilowatt-hours.
Lithium batteries are now the mainstream, and one kilogram of them has 0.7 kWh of electricity.
The total installed capacity of lithium batteries is about 570 million kilograms, which translates to 5.7 million tons of lithium batteries.
According to the thirty-fold difference in energy density and the ten-fold energy release, dividing five million, seven hundred thousand by three hundred, that is to say, only nineteen thousand kilograms of baryte batteries are needed to match five million, seven hundred thousand tons of lithium batteries.
Based solely on the current installed capacity of power batteries, 1.5 million tons of baryte batteries can be sold for seventy to eighty years!
After reaching this conclusion, Jiang Shan decisively stopped rubbing the silicon isotopes.
Another by-product besides the baryte battery is an unexpected result obtained while researching strong interaction materials.
It is a new material.
Jiang Shan intends to research the strong interaction materials in science fiction novels. In fact, he has been able to temporarily produce this material.
What do you mean by short-term?
Because it is unstable.
One of the keys to making strong interaction materials is to eliminate the electromagnetic force between particles.
Jiang Shan racked his brains and finally got inspiration from the second level of the Nine Ding Xuan Gong, the Nine Ding Zhen Yuan.
He discovered that when he used the magical power Jiuding Zhenyuan, the electromagnetic force between the particles of the matter touched by the magical power disappeared - to be precise, it was suppressed by the magical power.
Under the suppression of the Jiuding Zhenyuan magical power, Jiang Shan successfully produced the strong interaction force material; but once the magical power was taken away, the strong interaction force material could only last for half an hour, and return to its original state after half an hour!
What Jiang Shan needs is a permanent strong interaction material, not a temporary material for half an hour.
Therefore, the experiment on strong interaction materials hit a bottleneck. Jiang Shan believed that this was due to his insufficient attainments in the Wu Ji Jing and his inadequate comprehension of the Jiu Ding Zhen Yuan Shen Tong - he could not understand how the Jiu Ding Zhen Yuan Shen Tong eliminated the electromagnetic force.
He experimented with the mystery of the Jiuding Zhenyuan again and again, but when he was rubbing a nuclear explosion and then using the Jiuding Zhenyuan to suppress nuclear energy, he accidentally discovered a new carbon particle structure.
Jiang Shan was able to notice this new carbon particle structure because it reacted very strongly under the Nine Ding Zhenyuan magical power.
Then Jiang Shan became curious and studied this new carbon particle structure.
A new material was born.
This material belongs to the category of materials that are more microscopic than nanomaterials; its performance in all aspects is an order of magnitude better than the nanomaterials that are currently being hyped up.
The most commendable advantage is that the movement of particles inside it tends to stop, and the gaps between particles are much smaller than those of conventional matter.
This makes it a hundred times stronger than the hot graphene that is being hyped today. The only downside is that it is very cold, close to -100 degrees Celsius.
Its main secret lies in its structural morphology, which is more microscopic and extremely complex. It is difficult to prepare because the temperature is close to minus 100 degrees. At such a low temperature, any machine will find it difficult or even impossible to operate.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
It is currently difficult to mass produce it through scientific means.
But it's a gain anyway.
So even though strong interaction materials have not been truly developed, the emergence of nebula structured carbon materials is still a consolation.
Jiang Shan felt that his previous plan to build his own aircraft and solve the material issues could start from here.
Another thing that Jiang Shan was concerned about was the defense of Koros Island.
But Jiang Shan believes that this issue should be considered after controlled nuclear fusion is developed and sufficient energy sources are available.
Before this, the safety of Koros Island can only rely on Leng Feng's security team and the Black Fox mercenaries.
In this regard, Jiang Shan already has a plan in mind.
Didn't he kill a few people and get a few Qiankun bags there before? They all had something to gain.
Especially the one who froze Jiang Shan with the Bingpo Divine Light but was killed by Jiang Shan. In his Qiankun bag, there were a lot of practice notes of the Bingpo Divine Light - that is, research records.
Jiang Shan found inspiration from his practice notes.
The Ice Soul Divine Light is actually an extremely powerful magical power; its speed is comparable to the speed of light, and it freezes absolute zero. If the Ice Soul Divine Light can be weaponized, then as a defensive weapon, it is almost invincible within its range.
One is the speed, the speed of light, it will hit the target once it is shot out, there is no way to avoid it; the second is the absolute zero temperature - below absolute zero, the movement of particles of matter comes to a standstill. In other words, if you are shot by this thing, even a nuclear bomb will not explode.
If this thing could be weaponized, Koros Island would be as stable as a rock.
Even if someone uses a nuclear bomb to attack him, Jiang Shan is not afraid of him.
Of course, this still requires Jiang Shan to study it carefully, and it will be difficult to accomplish it in a short time.
In addition, another achievement of Jiang Shan during this period was a new intelligent program he rewrote based on the previously written mythological intelligent program, which he named "Jiuding".
