Biography
Paul Franklyn is currently working as professor of chemistry at University of the witswatersrand. He studies of mixed metal oxide nanoparticles (generally with titanium as one of the metals), green and alternate chemistry approaches to synthesis of oxide type materials, and novel catalysts for CO oxidation, photocatalysis, water splitting and carbon nanostructure production.
Research Interest
Focused much of his research on nanoparticles, green and alternate chemistry approaches to synthesis of oxide type materials, and novel catalysts for CO oxidation, photocatalysis, water splitting and carbon nanostructure production.
