I am a chemist student focused on research about colloidal systems, unraveling their behavior under different conditions to enhance final product performance. Having previously concentrated on colloids for cosmetic and personal care products - with expertise in both characterization and formulation of stable products. Now, I pivot my research towards rheological investigations in energy applications, specifically catalytic inks and battery slurries for anodes. I am excited to transfer mysoft matter science experience across different domains, bridging academic knowledge with industrial applications, which I find deeply motivating and satisfying.

About my PhD research
Subject: Catalytic ink processing parameters and their effects on electrode manufacturability and performance
Research description: I am conducting a comprehensive study to understand how composition and processing of colloidal gels impact their performance in energy-related applications. My research involves investigating slurries for battery anodes and electrocatalytic inks for fuel cell electrodes, with a goal of developing high-quality electrodes through advanced rheological and structural characterization. By systematically unraveling how processing parameters influence colloidal gel properties, the research aims to enable more precise and efficient electrode manufacturing for energy technologies.
