Agbemon Fangnon

Agbemon Fangnon is a Postdoctoral Researcher at Aalto University, affiliated with the Department of Energy and Mechanical Engineering and the Materials to Products research unit. Their work focuses on advanced materials science, specifically addressing challenges in energy storage systems and hydrogen-related material degradation. Key research interests include corrosion behavior of energy storage materials, hydrogen embrittlement in high-strength steels, and the development of sustainable supercapacitor technologies using waste-derived carbon materials. Fangnon's contributions align with UN Sustainable Development Goals related to affordable and clean energy.

Research activities span experimental analysis (e.g., cyclic stability testing of copper plates, graphene oxide synthesis from industrial waste) and predictive modeling (e.g., neural network-based hydrogen embrittlement prediction). Their publications emphasize interdisciplinary approaches combining materials characterization, electrochemistry, and mechanical engineering principles.

Key achievements include a doctoral thesis analyzing hydrogen embrittlement effects in steels and collaborative projects on bio-template materials for energy storage. Ongoing work explores synergies between material innovation and renewable energy systems.
