Was going to make some cynical comment about how it's just a new liquid/gas that we don't know enough about to be scared of yet. Sounds like it's a solid mater

Was going to make some cynical comment about how it's just a new liquid/gas that we don't know enough about to be scared of yet. Sounds like it's a solid material that generates cooling from material stresses sounds similar to piezoelectric.
- _Microft 8y agoIf you're interested in generation of an electric or thermal current with heat/electricity, the names to search for are Seebeck-effect and Peltier-effect. The piezo effect is when there's charge separation due to mechanimal stress.
- CompelTechnic 8y agoPiezo crystals can produce electricity in response to mechanical stress; this material can produce temperature differentials in response to mechanical stress. In that regard GP's analogy holds.
