Funded Activity Summary

Novel Inorganic Nanostructures Fabricated using Polymeric Supports and Templates for Environmental and Catalytic Applications. The flexibility and versatility of nanotemplating processes will be exploited to fabricate novel porous inorganic structures with controllable properties. These include tailorable surface area, pore size and structure, particle size and composition. The influence of such properties will be studied in various applications, including the photocatalytic decomposition of pollutants, where the ability to control the morphological structure of the inorganic materials introduced by the templating technique will lead to enhanced efficiencies. These nanostructures will also be considered for use in solar cells, an alternative energy source that is currently receiving copious attention worldwide.
