Reseach overview
Inorganic porous materials such as zeolites are widely used as solid catalysts and adsorbents. Controlling shapes and structures of the porous materials forms new functions. I am developing porous materials with new shapes and new structures such as hollow and rattle-type structures, and developing new usages such as solid catalysts and adsorbents with high performance, vessels for controlled release and microreactors.
