Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of the transportation and storage of goods and, in particular, to a box or box-like transport container that can provide a high degree of thermal insulation. More particularly, the present invention relates to storage containers that comprise a box or box-like container that can be hand-held. In the field of logistics, there is a widespread requirement to protect a thermally sensitive load to ensure that certain types of produce and materials do not to pass through certain temperature thresholds. It is well known that, for example, vegetables when subject to extremes of temperature that they become flaccid, as the cell structure is broken down through the formation of icicles or through dehydration. In essence, in any transport container with a thermally sensitive load, the rate at which heat passes through the packaging material of the transport container - the amount of heat that flows per unit time through a unit area with a temperature gradient per unit distance must not extend beyond a permitted temperature range for the product. The present invention provides an improved corrugated sheet container.

Abstract: A new solvent-based method is presented for making low-cost composite graphite electrodes containing a thermoplastic binder. The electrodes, termed thermoplastic electrodes (TPEs), are easy to fabricate and pattern, give excellent electrochemical performance, and have high conductivity (1500 S m -1 ). The thermoplastic binder enables the electrodes to be hot embossed, molded, templated, and/or cut with a CO 2  laser into a variety of intricate patterns. These electrodes show a marked improvement in peak current, peak separation, and resistance to charge transfer over traditional carbon electrodes. The impact of electrode composition, surface treatment (sanding, polishing, plasma treatment), and graphite source were found to impact fabrication, patterning, conductivity, and electrochemical performance. Under optimized conditions, electrodes generated responses similar to more expensive and difficult to fabricate graphene and highly oriented pyrolytic graphite electrodes. These TPE electrodes provide an approach for fabricating high-performance carbon electrodes with applications ranging from sensing to batteries.
