Grant: Canada Research Chairs
Simon Fraser University
$200,000.00
Electrochemical Materials
EF 2017-18
Résumé
Canada is recognized as a world leader in fuel cell technology, but other countries are gaining ground. To remain competitive, research is urgently needed to develop advanced materials for cost-effective, efficient fuel cells that will further propel fuel cell technology into mass-production. This program of research involves the design, synthesis, and integration of a class of functional macromolecules and organic materials that are driving next generation technologies. The proposed research will explore the relationship between molecular structures, morphology, and transport properties. Research outcomes will provide a platform of fundamental knowledge to foster the development of next generation clean energy technologies.
