My research is focused on synthesizing mesoporous materials which have a different degree of surface polarity and understanding of their surface characteristics. The findings can be applied for optimized biomass conversion. 

I am from Busan, Korea, and did my B.S. and M.S. programs in mechanical engineering at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) and Seoul National University. During the master course, my research interest was designing nanomaterial-based wearable electronics. I enjoy various sports, such as table tennis, boxing and bowling. 

Tools & Techniques: XRD, TGA, NMR, FT-IR, EPR, Fluorimeter.
