While many companies and start-ups are using bipolar membranes to develop new energy technologies, their underlying working principles and ion solvation kinetics have not yet been fully elucidated.

In a new paper published in JACS AU, researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign analyzed the effects of solvation and ion valency on metallopolymers, with implications for critical ...

Her research topics comprise photo-induced surface reactions, solvation- and confinement-controlled surface chemsitry, and reactions on complex alloy materials, all at the level of individual ...
