معرفی
Johan Alauzun serves as a Lecturer at the University of Montpellier, affiliated with the Charles Gerhardt Institute (ICGM - UMR5253), where he develops functional hybrid nanomaterials through advanced sol-gel chemistry and surface modification techniques.
His academic credentials include a Doctorate in Chemistry (2005) and Habilitation to Direct Research (HDR, 2018), both from the University of Montpellier. Postdoctoral training spanned McMaster University (biomaterials), University of Lyon 1 (porous ceramics), and CPE Lyon (catalysis).
Alauzun's research focuses on hydrolytic/non-hydrolytic sol-gel processes for synthesizing porous hybrids, mixed oxides, and nanoparticles, with emphasis on self-assembly and nanostructuring. His work bridges materials science, catalysis, and energy applications, particularly in CO2 capture and battery technologies.
Analysis of his 2022-2025 publications reveals dominant trends in phosphonate-based hybrid materials (e.g., titania-bisphosphonates, oxo-phosphonates) and borocarbonitrides, demonstrating innovations in porous material design for catalytic epoxidation, hydrogen storage, and electrochemical systems.
Based at the Charles Gerhardt Institute, Alauzun collaborates internationally with researchers in Canada, France, and beyond, leveraging the institute's multidisciplinary infrastructure for advanced materials synthesis and characterization.
