The first award-winning research poster was presented by the team of Prof. Christina Binag, PhD, Asst. Prof. Felicidad Christina Ramirez-Penafiel, PhD, Mr. David Joseph Alzate, MSc (PhD Chemistry student), and BS Chemistry alumnus Leighnard Jien R. Felix. The team worked on the project entitled 鈥淧olypyrrole and Rice Straw Biochar on Pineapple-Cotton Fabric as Supercapacitor Electrodes for Symmetrical Coin Assembly.鈥� The poster dealt with the concern on the growing global demand for energy that is both clean and renewable, which led to the need to develop energy storage devices. The paper found that biochar had a positive effect on the capacitance of PPY-based fabric electrodes and showed promise as an energy material for supercapacitors.

Meanwhile, the second work involved BSc Chemistry students under the guidance of Prof. Bernard John V. Tongol, PhD and Ms. Hannah Grace Geronimo, MSc (Graduate School student). The student researchers were senior students Ms. Maricar Cruz, Ms. Mary Elyssa Ranoa, and recent alumnus Mr. Matthew Villanueva. They worked on the project 鈥淔uel Cell Electrocatalysts for Ethanol Oxidation Reaction (eor) and Oxygen Reduction Reaction (orr) Based on Pyrolyzed Coconut Husk Biomass.鈥� The study used coconut husk biochar as a low-cost alternative to Pt-based cathode catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction and as a carbon-based support for Pd-based anode catalysts for ethanol oxidation reaction and found the catalysts to provide promising results for ORR and EOR with sustainable, low-cost source of carbon-based materials.

Speakers for the December series were from Chung Yuan Christian University Chemistry Department Dr. Hsi-Wei Jia, Dr. Amily Fang-Ju Jou, and Dr. Mei-Yu Yeh of Chung Yuan. They presented chemical research to end the first term’s webinar series. They covered a wide range of chemistry topics, including NMR technology and its applications, developing nucleic acid materials for electrochemical biosensing, and molecular designing using organic molecules. These online chemistry lecture series drew students and teachers from UST, local and international institutions, and research institutes.

For the third webinar in the series which was held in November, speakers were from India and the Philippines. Dr. Avijit Kumar Das of the CHRIST University of India and Dr. Aaron Joseph Villaraza of the University of the Philippines 鈥� Diliman Institute of Chemistry discussed the development of chemosensors in detecting biologically relevant small molecules and the kinetic considerations of lanthanide-DOTA type complex design in medical diagnostics, respectively.

The second webinar, conducted in October, covered various issues in inorganic chemistry research, including peptide-mediated biomineralization, lanthanide luminescence in nitride lattices, and iron (III) spin-crossover materials. Dr. Jose Isagani Janairo of the De La Salle University, Dr. Julius Leao Jr. of the Philippine Textile Research Institute, and Dr. David James Harding of the Functional Materials and Nanotechnology, Walailak University, were the panelists.

The inaugural webinar, which focused on current trends in materials chemistry research, was held in September. Prof. Drexel Camacho of De La Salle University talked about characterizing synthetic materials such as batteries, carbon nanotubes, zeolites, and cellulose using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.

Dr. Joey Ocon of the University of the Philippines-Diliman Department of Chemical Engineering, provided a comprehensive talk on energy storage for the renewable energy transition using a systems approach that included catalysis, electrochemistry, and energy engineering.

Dr. Sangaraju Shanmugan of the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology discussed the electrochemical properties of nanostructured catalysts in the production of carbon-free fuels that are sustainable.

Mr. Zeus Cruz, Ms. Junella Ruth Banawa, and Ms. Angelica Uy (MS Chemistry student) of the Department of Chemistry hosted the webinar series, with assistance from Dr. Dharmatov Albano, Chair of the Department, Dr. Alan Rodelle Salcedo, Dr. Felicidad Christina R. Ramirez, Mr. Melvir Sucaldito, and Mr. Kent Gervacio of the Department of Chemistry. Dean Rey Donne Papa, Dean Michael Anthony Vasco, and Dr. Elizabeth H.

The poster, 鈥淪ustainable and environmentally friendly energy storage devices: polyaniline/MWCNT/water hyacinth-cotton, and polypyrrole/MWCNT/pi帽a-cotton textile composites,鈥� was awarded on September 24, 2021, the last day of the conference.

Alzate鈥檚 research was co-authored with his adviser, Prof. Christina A. Binag, Ph.D., faculty member Asst. Prof. Felicidad Christina Ramirez 鈥� Pe帽afiel, Ph.D., and College of Science students Rica Angela Benipayo and Leighnard Jien R. Felix.
The 35th Philippine Chemistry Congress is the first fully online gathering of chemists and chemistry enthusiasts in the country, with its theme: 鈥淏uild Back Better Through Chemistry. 鈥淭he 鈥楤uild Back Better鈥� (BBB) concept was defined in the 2016 United Nations General Assembly – the 鈥渦se of the recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction phases after a disaster.鈥�

The PCC is the annual conference of chemists and chemistry enthusiasts in the Philippines. First held in 1984, the PCC has since served as one of the biggest gatherings of chemists and researchers from academe, industry, government, and other sectors, where new knowledge in chemistry and allied fields are brought to the forefront.

In response to this need, UST Graduate School student Celine Grace V. Causapin, along with UST Research Center for Natural and Applied Sciences and College of Science faculty researchers Dr. Felicidad Christina R. Ramirez and Dr. Christina A. Binag, fabricated a supercapacitor using Abaca-Cotton Fabric (ACF) with Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) and Polyaniline-Polypyrrole Complex Layer (PAPY) as electrode materials.

This research study by three Thomasian researchers won first place in the Scientific Posters category of the Rapid Fire Competition under the Material Science and Technology Cluster during the 40^th Philippine-American Academy of Science and Engineering (PAASE) Anniversary and 2020 Annual Scientific Meeting and Symposium (APAMS), as announced in the closing ceremonies held via Zoom on August 14, 2020.

The study was able to show that 鈥渢he energy density (1.82 Wh/L) and power density (50.31 W/L) values of PAPY/MWCNT/ACF fall well within the supercapacitor range of the Ragone plot, indicative of an ideal supercapacitor electrode material behavior.鈥� This ACF, though non-conducting, has a high surface area and is suitably porous for supercapacitors, while MWCNTs have high conductivity and stability but low capacitance. PAPY complements the other materials with its good conductivity, improved cycling stability, and high capacitance values.

This means that supercapacitors with these electrode materials are 鈥渃apable of storing and delivering energy, enough to power a 2.88 V LED鈥� and can be used to power a variety of other low power devices such as PC cards, portable media players and flashlights.

Other potential applications are in off-grid areas or rural areas, as well as assistance during and after major calamities.  This textile-based supercapacitor is highly sustainable with the use of indigenous fabrics like abaca blended cotton.

The work by student Celine Grace V. Causapin, along with faculty researchers and , focused on supercapacitors, 鈥渙ne of the most studied energy storage devices due to their high power density, fast charge-discharge rate, and long-term cycle stability.鈥�

The study aimed to 鈥渇abricate and characterize a renewable supercapacitor electrode using abaca-cotton fabric (ACF) with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and polyaniline-polypyrrole complex layer (PAPY). The study also aimed to assemble symmetrical supercapacitor full cells using hybrid composites as electrodes.鈥�

According to the researchers, 鈥渢he physical characteristics of the composites were evaluated using four-point probe conductivity test and thermogravimetric analyses.鈥� Furthermore, their study showed that the 鈥渢he energy density (1.82 Wh/L) and power density (50.31 W/L) values of PAPY/MWCNT/ACF fall well within the supercapacitor range of the Ragone plot, making it an ideal supercapacitor electrode material.鈥�
