School of Chemical Engineering

Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology


My research is centred around the development of innovative electrolytes tailored for aqueous zinc-ion batteries, with a particular focus on their application in large-scale energy storage solutions. Employing a multidisciplinary approach, my work integrates theoretical calculations with electrochemical experiments, bridging the realms of materials science, chemical engineering, and physical chemistry.

Commencing my academic journey in December 2021, I obtained a Master’s degree from the School of Chemical Engineering at the University of Adelaide (UofA). Fueled by my passion for research, I pursued further studies at UofA, undertaking a PhD under the supervision of Professor Yan Jiao and Dr Junnan Hao. Along this journey, I have had the privilege of collaborating with a diverse group of friendly, enthusiastic, and dedicated individuals in the scientific research community.

My aspiration is for my research endeavours to reach a wider audience and to contribute, albeit modestly, to the advancement of knowledge in the field.
