Daniel Hallinan Jr. is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering at Florida A&M University-Florida State University's College of Engineering. His research focuses on polymers for advanced energy sustainability, particularly in solid-state batteries, membrane separations, and CO2 capture. He holds a Ph.D. from Drexel University (2009) and a B.S. and A.B. from Lafayette College (2001). His postdoctoral work at UC Berkeley (2012) furthered expertise in polymer electrolytes.
Dr. Hallinan leads the Polymers for Advanced Energy Sustainability (PAES) lab, advancing nanostructured polymers for energy storage and sustainability. His work includes developing solid electrolytes for lithium batteries and membrane technologies for water desalination. He has pioneered techniques like time-resolved 7Li MRI to study ion transport and employs advanced characterization methods (e.g., X-ray scattering, NMR).
- Received the NSF CAREER Award for studying dynamics in block copolymers.
- Advisees include notable graduates like Kyoungmin Kim (Intel Engineer) and Guang Yang (Oak Ridge National Lab).
- Collaborates with institutions like the National High Magnetic Field Lab and Army Research Lab on projects like artificial muscles.
His lab integrates synthesis, characterization, and application of polymer materials, addressing challenges in energy storage and environmental sustainability. Key achievements include developing nanoparticle assemblies for SERS-based chemical detection and pulsed voltammetry for studying lithium plating kinetics.
