Biography
Yangchuan (Chad) Xing is the James C. Dowell Professor in Engineering in the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Missouri. He earned his PhD degree in chemical engineering from Yale University and completed his postdoctoral fellowship at Johns Hopkins University. His research interest lies in advanced functional materials and chemically reacting systems. Current research projects include understanding oxygen electrocatalysis for fuel cells and electrolyzers, sustainable manufacturing of transition metal oxides for Li and Na ion batteries, and deposition of nanocoatings on nanomaterials using the condensed layer deposition (CLD) process. His research is currently supported by the National Science Foundation, the U.S. Department of Energy, and industrial partners. He has taught both undergraduate and graduate courses, covering chemical engineering unit operations laboratory, transport phenomena, chemical reaction engineering, chemical process materials, and nanomaterials.
