Laboratory Introduction

In the Inorganic Materials Chemistry (IMC) laboratory, we have been studying the phenomena occurred in the interface of nano-structured materials. Based on the understanding of these phenomena, IMC have been achieved the property improvements of the nano-structured materials by the regulation of the interface. The major fields of applications are partial oxidation of hydrocarbon, methane reforming, and electrode materials for energy storage.
