219: Reverse Engineering

Zhao Yang felt slightly helpless.

"What a coincidence?"

Guo Hao was a little surprised.

"Who says it isn't? We've been doing normal research, adding Carbon Nanotubes to lithium battery, but it hasn't had a very good effect. Instead, it's the unknown material Yan Yating accidentally got in that has achieved such a good result, a 13% increase in energy storage!"

As he spoke, excitement showed in Zhao Yang's eyes.

If they could truly reverse-engineer the formula and determine the final recipe, the benefits contained within would be immense!

Everyone in their research group would be able to get a good share of the profits!

"Then for the reverse engineering, why call me back?"

A hint of doubt appeared in Guo Hao's eyes as he looked at Zhao Yang beside him and asked, puzzled.

"We need your Mathematics modeling ability."

Academician Jiang Lei's expression was slightly serious.

"We are using a scanning electron microscope to analyze the elemental composition inside this battery, but because there are many interfering factors, we need to gradually eliminate them. At the same time, we will also use a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer to scan this battery."

"When the data is generated, I need you to use Mathematics modeling for analysis, combining it with the data from our previous research to see if we can find it!"

"Okay!"

Guo Hao nodded.

This was originally his job.

The people in the Laboratory began to get busy. After the battery had undergone hundreds of charge-discharge cycles and its performance was confirmed to be without problems, they began to scan and remodel the battery.

Analyzing the materials added inside the battery and removing all the common materials, the remaining materials were those that Yan Yating had accidentally added.

Guo Hao began to model, compare, and then analyze these materials on the computer.

This process was not complicated.

Because of the previous experimental data, Guo Hao had already established a Mathematics model long ago.

After the experimental model for the new battery was established, Guo Hao only needed to incorporate it into the new system and then compare them.

He was busy for a whole day, until seven or eight in the evening.

According to the Mathematics model, Guo Hao roughly analyzed the material's mathematical spectrum.

He refitted and compared the discrete Fourier function.

With Guo Hao's help.

In conjunction with the Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, the composition of the new material was quickly analyzed.

Some unclean waste residue from Carbon Nanotubes, after combining with the lithium battery, surprisingly produced a completely new Chemistry reaction.

Guo Hao looked at the suddenly prominent peak on the Fourier function graph in front of him with some surprise.

He had just done a large number of comparisons, and according to the large Mathematics model established from previous experiments, this situation could not be explained at all.

What exactly was going on??

Guo Hao's eyes were full of curiosity.

The field of Materials Science is truly unpredictable.

Analyzing the waste residue from the Carbon Nanotubes, some changes occurred in the stacking of carbon molecules.

Analysis, modeling.

Soon, the analysis results came out.

Unexpectedly, the restacked Carbon Nanotubes did not perform well, in fact, they were quite poor. However, after being added to the lithium battery on a small scale, they surprisingly produced some magical composite effects.

Thus, the energy storage ratio of the lithium battery was increased by 13%.

Looking at the results in front of him, Guo Hao's eyes were a little dazed. This result was very different from what he had imagined...

Materials themselves cannot really be distinguished by good or bad.

Especially in this form, as an additive.

These Carbon Nanotubes, accidentally restacked, produced Carbon Nanotubes waste material whose performance was actually very poor, so it was usually discarded as waste.

But when accidentally added to the lithium battery, it unexpectedly brought a surprise.

It seems that his Mathematics model was not comprehensive enough.

Guo Hao was thoughtful.

According to his Mathematics model, he could calculate the possible theoretical performance of the new material, but for this situation, it was almost useless.

The additive for the new battery, who would have thought it was just a simple restacking of Carbon Nanotubes?

"How is it?? Are you finished?"

Just as Guo Hao was thinking, Academician Jiang Lei's words beside him interrupted his thoughts.

"I'm finished. According to our current Fourier function, the lithium battery's performance is highest when the additive amount is 1.7%, reaching 14%. This should be the limit for Carbon Nanotubes with this stacking method."

"Copy all the experimental data, graphs, and your analysis to the external hard drive!"

Academician Jiang Lei showed an excited expression on his face as he spoke to Guo Hao.

"Okay."

Guo Hao quickly copied it to the hard drive and handed it to Academician Jiang Lei beside him.

After taking the hard drive, Academician Jiang Lei patted Guo Hao's shoulder.

"You did very well! Your contribution is significant for achieving these results this time!"

"It was my duty!"

Guo Hao smiled.

"Go back and rest early!"

"Okay, Professor."

After speaking, Academician Jiang Lei left in a hurry. He would be very busy next.

The Laboratory has achieved results. This is a result of cooperation with CATL. Next are some commercial operations, including reproducing it in CATL's Laboratory.

There is also industrial mass production and so on, and then profit distribution according to the contract terms.

Guo Hao didn't need to worry about these anymore.

He just needed to wait to get his bonus.

As one of the important members of the research group, Guo Hao felt that he should also get a good amount of bonus this time.

He stood up from in front of the computer.

Guo Hao felt slightly dizzy in the head.

He looked at the time, it was already past eight in the evening...

He had pulled another all-nighter.

Guo Hao felt slightly helpless.

Time to go back and sleep!

Leaving the Laboratory, Guo Hao quickly returned to the dormitory.

"Holy cow! Hao Ge, don't tell me you spent the entire day in the Laboratory again??"

Ma Xin looked at Guo Hao walking into the dormitory, his eyes filled with shock.

The other two roommates also looked at Guo Hao with disbelief in their eyes.

"Yeah."

Guo Hao nodded.

"Hao Ge, are you trying to kill yourself??"

Ma Xin looked at Guo Hao in front of him with disbelief.

"No choice, the Laboratory work is more important!"

"Alright, I won't talk to you guys anymore, I'm going to sleep first."

"Okay!"

"Go to sleep quickly!"

Ma Xin didn't dare to say anything more either.

Guo Hao's head was already feeling a bit groggy at this point. Regardless of anything else, he took off his shoes directly, lay down on the bed, and immediately fell into a deep sleep.

By then, he hadn't slept for almost sixty hours.

The three people in the dormitory looked at each other, watching Guo Hao lying on the bed.

No one dared to make a sound.

The next day, when Guo Hao woke up, the dormitory was empty.

He looked at his phone.

Three in the afternoon.

They should all be sleeping, but coincidentally, Shen Luoyan wasn't in class today, she should be in the Library.
