Materials & Electrochemical R&D Specialist | Catalysts, Membranes, Hydrogen Energy & Nanomaterials Expert

Profile Summary

I am an Electrochemical Scientist with a PhD in Nanomaterials Design for Water Electrolysis, specializing in catalyst development, membrane electrode assembly (MEA) fabrication, and performance evaluation for hydrogen technologies. I have strong expertise in non-PGM OER/HER catalysts (NiFe-LDH, NiMo, NiCo-based systems), advanced catalyst-coated membranes (CCMs), and scaling AEM water electrolysis from lab-scale to prototype stacks. My work includes catalyst synthesis, MEA optimization, durability studies, and comprehensive electrochemical/physicochemical characterization. I have contributed to patented technologies and high-impact scientific publications. I also support clients with research documentation, data interpretation, proposal writing, and process optimization for electrochemical systems, fuel cells, and batteries. I am committed to delivering accurate, scalable, and innovative solutions for clean-hydrogen production and sustainable energy materials.
