Pranoti Patil

Pranoti obtained a Master of Science degree from India with an outstanding academic record. She has consistently demonstrated a strong passion for chemistry and materials science and always excelled in her studies. During the master’s degree, she was actively engaged in research. Her works were focused on the synthesis and electrochemical testing of a diverse range of materials, including biomass-derived carbon, Manganese dioxide, conducting polymers, and various carbon-based nanostructures such as carbon nanotubes, graphene oxide, and reduced graphene oxide. The new composites made from these materials were tested as efficient electrode materials to be used in supercapacitors and battery-type supercapacitors. Furthermore, she also worked on the synthesis and evaluation of N-doped graphitic carbon-based composite materials for energy storage applications. These works resulted in the publication of several articles in international peer-reviewed journals. She received recognition and awards for her research contributions.

At present, she is a highly motivated research student between the CNRS, France and the UNSW, Australia. Her research currently focuses on the critical interface between electrodes and electrolytes, specifically investigating the behaviour of novel core-shell materials synthesized via the supercritical fluid chemical deposition (SFCD) technique. This work aims to significantly advance the performance of Li-ion batteries through the development of innovative surface-modified electrode materials. Pranoti’s strong foundation in materials science and electrochemistry, coupled with her proven research passion and unwavering dedication to academic excellence, positions her as a promising young researcher to make significant contributions in the field of energy storage systems.
