Electrochemical Research with Experiment/Theory/Data Science Collaboration

Research Results - Development of high-precision lifetime forecasting technology for water electrolysis materials

The main bottleneck in the development of water electrolysis devices is the evaluation of their lifetime, which takes several years. We successfully predicted the lifetime of water electrolysis materials by applying data assimilation algorithms.

Research Results - Development of accurate activity evaluation method for water electrolysis materials

Acquiring reliable electrochemical data is essential for data-driven discovery of novel high-performance water electrolysis materials. It is necessary to accurately measure the pH when evaluating electrochemical properties and to correct the activity based on the results. This study developed a simple and highly accurate method for performing such corrections.
