Dr Bo Xiao

School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering

We are interested in development of functional materials and approaches for therapeutic applications, energy storage, carbon capture, methane reduction, and water treatment. For example, using MOFs for drug delivery, CO2 and H2 adsorption; modification of carbon materials for removal of metal ions in water; using porous polymers for nitric oxide delivery; making nanoparticles for enhancing F-T reaction.
