Prof. Dr. Lars Borchardt

Prof Borchardt's research group is working on mechanochemistry in order to establish it as a resource-, energy- and time-efficient synthesis method for carbon-based electrode materials. In addition to gaining a fundamental understanding of the mechanochemical generation of porosity in carbon materials, the aim is to produce porous carbon from renewable resources or waste materials and to characterise it electrochemically as supercapacitor and Li-S electrode materials.
