Guest Lecture on Synthesis of Nanomaterials and Battery Technology

Guest Lecture on Synthesis of Nanomaterials and Battery Technology

As a part of Alumni Club activity, we the School of Chemical Sciences, REVA University, Bangalore had organized a guest lecture on “Synthesis of Nanomaterials and Battery Technology” on 19th September 2019 from 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM in the Room no 106, 1St Floor, School of applied Sciences, REVA University for the 1st year and 2nd year M.Sc. Organic Chemistry students, research scholars and staff.
The expert lecture was delivered by 

Dr. Nagaraj G N
Professor
Dept. of Chemistry
Siddaganga Institute of Technology
Tumkur.

The Expert lecture focused on the following key points:
1.    Basic knowledge of nanomaterials
2.    Importance of nanomaterials and nanotechnology
3.    Synthetic approaches from chemist’s and physicist’s point of view
4.    Combustion method for the preparation of a metal oxide nanostructures
5.    Studies related to applications of nanomaterials for photocatalytic activity and battery technology
The talk follows interactive discussions and Q&A.

Following are the outcomes achieved:

    Basic idea about nanomaterials  
    Different synthetic approaches to make nanomaterials
    A simple combustion method for the synthesis of metal oxide nanostructures 
    Different characterization techniques for the confirmation of the formed nanostructures 
    Potential applications of nanomaterials for photocatalysis and energy storage
    Various fellowship schemes available for graduate students to pursue Ph.D. and research activities across India
