Selection of New Projects for the Ministry of Education’s Research Incentive Grants for Master’s Students in Science and Engineering / Lee Jun-young (Master’s student, Department of New Materials Engineering, Graduate School, Class of ’26)
- 26.09.14 / 홍유민

Lee Jun-young, a master’s student in the Department of New Materials Engineering at our university’s Graduate School (advisor: Hong Seung-hyun(HONG JOHN)), presented on the topic “Spontaneous Protective Layer Design via Zinc Surface Corrosion Reactions for High-Performance Aqueous Zinc Metal Powder Batteries (Research on the Design of Protective Layers Based on Spontaneous Surface Formation Reactions Utilizing Zinc Surface Corrosion and the Enhancement of Performance in Aqueous Zinc Metal Powder Batteries), has been selected for a new 2026 Ministry of Education Research Incentive Grant for Master’s Students in Science and Engineering.
This research aims to utilize the spontaneous corrosion reaction of zinc metal powder to uniformly form hydrophilic byproducts on the surface, thereby improving the interfacial properties of the zinc anode active material. Through this surface modification, the research seeks to improve the lifespan and cycle stability of aqueous zinc-ion secondary batteries. Ultimately, it aims to enhance the commercial viability of highly safe aqueous zinc-ion secondary batteries and contribute to the development of next-generation energy storage systems that can complement or replace lithium-ion batteries.
