From October 8 to 12, the 244th Electrochemical Society (ECS) Meeting took place in Gothenburg, Sweden.
Xiaofang BAI, Zengyin WEN, Yiqi JIN, and Yujiao SUN, postgraduate students from the research group of Hui LI, Chair Professor of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), participated in the meeting and shared their related research results in the fields of water electrolysis and fuel cells, which attracted the attention of many scholars.
During the meeting, Xiaofang BAI, Zengyin WEN, and Yujiao SUN displayed poster presentations, showcasing their research results in electrochemistry.
Xiaofang BAI demonstrated the design of a novel oxygen evolution catalyst with high stability and high activity for proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer (PEMWE).
Yujiao SUN presented her insights and solutions to the challenges faced by PEMWE low iridium loading membrane electrodes.
Zengyin WEN shared her research on using carbon monoxide shielding to adjust ionomer distribution on the platinum surface in the catalytic layer of proton exchange membrane fuel cells.
In addition, Yiqi JIN presented a report on the stability of polyelectrolytes in anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer, and proposed strategies for enhancement.
The students also held in-depth exchanges with many well-known experts in the industry.
“The students have not only performed well in academic research, but also demonstrated strong communication and expression skills in this international academic exchange”, said Professor Hui LI in his appreciation for the students who participated in the meeting on behalf of SUSTech.
The ECS Meeting is the world’s largest electrochemistry event, providing a platform for scholars to showcase their latest research results, exchange academic views, establish international cooperation relationships, and promote continuous innovation and development in the field of electrochemistry.
It included oral reports, poster presentations, and panel discussions, covering all aspects of the electrochemistry field, from battery technology to new energy materials.
