Webinars & Live Demonstrations

Presented by Dr. Chris Arges, Assistant Professor in Chemical Engineering at Louisiana State University (LSU) in Baton Rouge

Polymer electrolytes are important material components to the efficiency of numerous electrochemical processes.  This webinar will be presented in two parts:

• Part 1 of this talk presents the impetus behind the re-emergence of high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane (HT-PEM) fuel cells for vehicular applications. 
• Part 2 of the talk presents our work on probing the ionic activity coefficients in thin film polymer electrolytes interfaced with liquid aqueous electrolytes using advanced metrology (e.g., environmental GI-SAXS and QCM) and classical molecular dynamics simulations.
