OUR RESEARCH
CARBON NANOMATERIALS
Carbon Nanomaterials
The objective is to design new functionalization strategies for obtaining new materials with potential applications in supercapacitors, fuel cells, and molecular electronics applications.
SUPRAMOLECULAR CHEMISTRY
Photochemical switches and molecular machines
Photochemical processes that affect the different thermodynamic and kinetic states of libraries based on hydrazonic and acylhydrazonic compounds. We focus on studying libraries of combinatorial dynamics based on acylhydrazonic compounds, where their content can be modulated through physical effectors such as light and heat, as well as chemical effectors such as metallic ions and pH changes.
Based on imine bonds, the research group has designed dynamic polymers (dynamers) characterized by exhibiting multiple dynamics with potential applications in molecular electronics, self-repairing materials, and coatings.
POLYMERIC MATERIALS
The design of smart materials is one of the most exciting and active topics in modern science. In our research group, we are interested in designing "smart" materials, especially those that respond to stimuli such as light, heat, and pH.
