Redox Polymers
Our Research
Redox polymers are key for the development of new green energy technologies such as organic batteries, printed batteries and redox flow batteries. The use of redox polymers is also advancing new technologies for CO2 recovery, biosensors or biofuel cells.

Our Objective
Our aim is to develop redox active polymers that are able to oxidize and reduce reversibly for energy storage applications. We are working in the development of new redox polymers including biobased multiphenol polymers, new nitroxide systems, viologen analogs or microporous polyimides.
