Selective and fast transport of various ionic species dictate the performance of batteries and fuel cells. By synthesizing various ion conducting polymers and characterizing their ion transport properties, we strive to improve upon current state-of-the-art electrochemical performance.
POLYMER MEMBRANES FOR SEPARATIONS

Separations to purify water and gas streams are a crucial technology for both industry and healthcare. By understanding transport phenomena through various polymers, we hope to mitigate current energy intensive separation processes.
