Funded Activity Summary

Structural and compositional controlled nanocarbon-based electrocatalyst. This project aims to develop highly effective carbon-based electro-catalysts for oxygen reduction by using elaborately designed metal-organic framework precursors. Oxygen reduction is a key cathodic reaction in clean energy technologies such as metal-air batteries and fuel cells. Expected outcomes of this project include carbon-based nanomaterials with optimised topological and compositional features. This project will broaden the knowledge of designed synthesis of carbon-based nanocatalysts for oxygen reduction and provide a conceptual nanofabrication framework for preparing functional nanomaterials.
