PERSONAL RECORD

Name: Pablo Palomino (born 30 July 1986)

Nationality: Spanish                                                                            

Current employment: Scholarship holder in the Departmento de Quimica Fisica I, Facultad de Ciencias Quimicas, Universidad Complutense, Madrid, Spain.

Phone: +34 913944269 Fax: +34 913944135

 

      EDUCATION :

  • (2009) Final degree proyect in Chemistry, Complutense University of Madrid, Madrid, Spain (Top mark).
  • (2009) Graduate in Chemistry. Complutense University of Madrid, Madrid, Spain
  • (2010)Interuniversity Master in organic Chemistry, Complutense University of Madrid and Autonoma University of Madrid.
  • (Expected to be finished in 2015) Ph.D. in chemistry. Complutense University of Madrid, Spain

      RESEARCH: My actual research is concerned with the design and synthesis of porous carbon (Resorcinol-Formaldehyde and activated carbon) for supercapacitors, according with the large demand of electrical energy storage devices that can be fully charged or discharged quickly.

In addition I am involved as much the textural characterization as the electrochemical performance of these materials.

 

Research Grants:

  • Predoctoral fellowship Universidad Complutense de Madrid: Carbons and Xerogels of resorcinol- formaldehyde: Porosity and applications.Complutense University of Madrid (2010).
  • Mobility fellowship Complutense University of Madrid (2013):  Exploring Textural Effects of Amorphous Carbon in Ionic Liquid Electrolytes. Solid state electrochemistry laboratory, University of Southampton School of Chemistry Southampton, United Kingdom (2013)
