Avec une approche multidisciplinaire et collaborative en chimie des plasmas (gaz ionisées) et en science des matériaux, notre équipe offre une opportunité unique pour travailler sur le développement de nouveaux procédés chimiques écoresponsables. Nos recherches portent sur la caractérisation chimique et le développement de procédés plasma à pression atmosphérique. Notre groupe de recherche travaille sur l’étude des interactions entre plasma et surfaces/interfaces pour créer de nouveaux matériaux aux propriétés nano- et macroscopiques adaptées aux applications énergétiques et environnementales. L’étude de procèdes à pression atmosphérique permettra la création de procédés industriels innovants pour l’industrie de demain (système roll-to-roll, procédés automatisés 3D, etc.). Notre approche physicochimique vise également au développement de stratégies de synthèses avancées pour la chimie verte en utilisant moins de solvants.

Les motivations qui alimentent notre travail sont :

– Le besoin de concevoir de procédés plasma à pression atmosphérique adaptés à l’industrie.

– Les besoins de faire progresser la compréhension des phénomènes chimiques impliqués dans les procédés plasma à pression atmosphérique lors de la synthèse/traitement de matériaux.

– Les besoins émergents pour le développement de nouveaux matériaux durables fabriqués à partir ou directement sur des matériaux biosourcés ainsi que de nouveaux procédés industriels respectueux de l’environnement.

– La demande croissante en matériaux pour les applications énergétiques (photovoltaïque, catalyse, stockage, conversion d’énergie, etc.) et environnementales (filtration, assainissement de l’environnement, etc.).

Notre objectif à long terme est de fournir un meilleur niveau de compréhension des phénomènes chimiques complexes créer lors de l’utilisation de plasmas à la pression atmosphérique.
