The electrode is at the heart of the electrochemical reactions. The electrode structure is the key to supplying ample reactant and electrons to the reactive sites and maximising the availability of the catalyst for reactions. However, it is challenging to realise these functions in practical applications due to the lack of balance between electron conductivity, catalyst reactivity, and gas/liquid transport.

Our lab is mainly focused on understanding the behaviour of electrode structural materials at industrially applicable operating conditions and re-engineering the electrode structure to augment the electrode performance associated with transport phenomena and stability.
