Meet Aravind “Babs” Baby, this month’s featured student researcher. 👋 Babs studies how to extend lead-acid batteries' lifetimes through refurbishment. He hopes his research will reduce the harmful environmental impacts of battery recycling. 🪫♻️🔋 ▶️bit.ly/3yrNbc0




Wow! Thanks for the excellent highlight of our work! Surprising new results from a mature technology, and nicely accomplished by postdoc @AAsserghine and our newly minted PhD @AravindBabs @ChemistryUIUC

Recent work from @jrllab utilizes scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to identify reactive species in-situ that are a key driving force behind Lead-Acid Battery Self Discharge. Continue below to learn more! pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Art…

Congratulations to Kyle Timmer and Aravind Baby for being selected as Research Live! Finalists! They will compete for monetary prizes at a showcase where they will tell their research stories in 3 minutes or less! Attend in person or online April 2nd at 5 pm to cheer them on!

And for the hat trick on Pb echem from our @AravindBabs and @AAsserghine - Inducing and real-time monitoring of lead (de)sulfation processes using scanning electrochemical microscopy for applications in the refurbishment of lead-acid batteries sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

*Metal decarbonization* is essential for deep decarbonization. Electrolysis is an elegant solution and is now being pursued for decarbonizing ironmaking and other industrial processes. However, aluminum is already electrolytic and is still stubbornly CO2 intense. Why? 🧵(1/19)

More on the lead-acid battery saga by @AravindBabs and @AAsserghine in collaboration with @HuiminZhaoLab - desulfation and echem recovery of lead using benign amino acid based ionic liquids! @ChemistryUIUC @ChBEIllinois sciencedirect.com/science/articl…



We didn’t hold great expectations to see something fundamentally new in lead-acid batteries, but chemistry acts in mysterious ways ❤️ @ChemistryUIUC work by @AAsserghine and @AravindBabs et al using SECM and the redox-active spin trap, enjoy! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
