# Research Area Dziedzina naukowa
1 My research group works on new materials for energy storage devices such as batteries and supercapacitors. The recent breakthrough studies of the group has led to the design and development of a novel family of Huckel-type salts for application in electrolytes used in lithium and/or sodium ion batteries. These conducting salts are based on anions that weaken coordination interactions between anion and cation in the structure, thus resulting in an increased ionic conductivity and cation transference number values, lower tendency towards formation of associates, and high tolerance to moisture. These conducting salts containing novel, proprietary anions are also functional as SEI modifiers and moisture absorbent/inside desiccants, present in electrolyte as a single additive or in a mixture with other environmentally friendly additives based on organosulphur compounds also designed in my research group. . Another area of interest deals with studies on a new class of proton solid conductors based on nonaqueous proton conducting gel polymeric electrolytes for application in electrochromic devices. This concept is currently used in super capacitors working below ambient temperature. Chemical-Sciences
