JHONY XAVIER FLORES LASLUISA

Presentation

Jhony Flores-Lasluisa graduated in Chemistry in 2015 at the University of Alicante. He carried out his Final Degree Project in the Department of Inorganic Chemistry carrying out the synthesis of Ru nanoparticles supported on functionalized carbon materials for the hydrolytic hydrogenation reaction of cellulose. Subsequently, he completed the Master´s degree in Materials Science at the same university, carrying out the Master´s Thesis in the same research group and continuing with the same research line. At the end of 2017, he joined the research group of Electrocatalysis and Polymer Electrochemistry (GEPE) of the Department of Physical Chemistry at the University of Alicante to perform his PhD focusing on the development of metal oxides with perovskite and spinel-based structures mixed with carbon materials for different electrochemical reactions such as oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In 2021 he spent three months at the University of Liège (Belgium) in the research group of Nanomaterials, Catalysis, Electrochemistry (NCE) under the supervision of Prof. Nathalie Job developing the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) for subsequent measurement in a fuel cell station. In 2022 he joined as a postdoctoral researcher in the NCE research group at the University of Liège where he focused on the synthesis of carbon xerogel and metal oxide composite materials for ORR. In 2024 he joined CIC energiGUNE as a postdoctoral researcher where he is currently working on the development of electrodes for metal-air batteries.
