Exploring Hybrid Materials for Biomedical and Environmental Applications at ICMol's CEL
Discover moreAbout Us
The Crystal Engineering Lab (CEL) is part of the Institute of Molecular Science (ICMol) at the University of Valencia. We are interested in the development of new materials of hybrid organic and inorganic nature from a crystal engineering approach. We address both the design, as well as the synthesis and advanced characterization of the same, contemplating different scales, from nanomaterials to crystalline solids, to study fundamental properties and their uses in biomedical and environmental related fields.
What we do
Our group studies new materials, from synthesis and caractherization to further implementation. We investigate the potential of novel porous materials for many applications, including gas separations and carbon dioxide capture, as well as for sensing and for light-harvesting and photocatalysis.
