Working on electrolytes in 🔋

[Chibueze Amanchukwu @AmanchukwuLab]

Excited about the opportunity to work with @doescience and the CPIMS program to explore ideas on the effect of electrolyte solvation on electrocatalytic transformations.

[UChicago Pritzker Molecular Engineering @UChicagoPME]

Congratulations to @AmanchukwuLab for his @ENERGY Early Career Research Program award! The grant will help him continue investigating a pathway for clean energy deployment and will transform future chemical manufacturing.

#ResearchExperience #RENEU

[UChicago Pritzker Molecular Engineering @UChicagoPME]

New research from @AmanchukwuLab outlines a way to use solvent-free inorganic molten salts to create energy-dense, safe #batteries, opening new possibilities for #EVs and grid scale #renewable #energy storage. https://t.co/tTzlA8wSVL

[UChicago Pritzker Molecular Engineering @UChicagoPME]

Meet the inaugural class of RENEU, a distance learning program started by @AmanchukwuLab, that pairs Nigerian students with @UChicago Pritzker Molecular Engineering faculty and post-doc mentors to develop their own research projects and careers.

Just because no one has been able to scale up carbon conversion doesn’t mean it isn’t possible. CIFAR’s @AmanchukwuLab is at the forefront of this important field that has the potential to lower carbon emissions worldwide. #ResilientEarth

[UChicago Pritzker Molecular Engineering @UChicagoPME]

Students from @AmanchukwuLab had the great opportunity to talk about #batteries and #renewableenergy at the @msichicago career fair's Battery Day. This event is a great way for students to educate young scientists about new research and #STEM.👩‍🔬

Was glad to present the work I did with the @UChicagoPME on "Using ML to analyse the SEI on cycled Li-metal anodes" at the RENEU 2023 PhD Workshop in Lagos. Thanks to @AmanchukwuLab and @YingShirleyMeng for the opportunity. Also, thanks to @NSF and @UChicago for funding this.

[Sloan Scholars Mentoring Network (@ssmn.ssrc.org) @SloanNetwork]

Congratulations, @AmanchukwuLab!
#SloanScholar Chibueze Amanchukwu, MIT '17, will receive $1m over 5 yrs to study electrochemical processes that are central to clean energy deployment. He was an SSMN grantee in 2021 and won the NSF CAREER award in 2022.⚡️ https://t.co/erfiarI2i0

[CIFAR @CIFAR_News]

With a new focus on finding innovative and scalable solutions, the members of our renamed Accelerated Decarbonization program are ready to find answers to our carbon imbalance.

Newest paper published in @JPhysChem where we study why alkali cations couldn't enable CO2 reduction in aprotic media. We solve this challenge using acidic aprotic electrolytes that yield carbon containing products. @ReggieJGomes https://t.co/7uNAvPgmux

If you are in the Chicago area this is always a fun family event. Hope to see you there! @UChiMaterials @UChicagoPSD #NSFMRSEC

[Chibueze Amanchukwu @AmanchukwuLab]

My group and I enjoyed having a booth at Science Works @msichicago . Was fun seeing kids and adults alike fabricating real batteries and getting excited when it lit up an LED. Our outreach work sponsored by @NSF @UChicagoPME

[UChicago Civic Engagement @UChiEngagement]

As part of @msichicago’s Science Works event, @UChicagoPME students led a battery building station where participants got to build a real battery from scratch and put it to the test! #PartnersInImpact

[Chibueze Amanchukwu @AmanchukwuLab]

New paper from group. As Li-ion supports new applications, we want more from them. However, electrolyte design has lagged behind. We show our fluoroethers can surprisingly support graphite and graphite-silicon anodes. https://t.co/K0IJOWoWPx
