Research Groups & Research Areas

• Inorganic / Analytical Chemistry

  We use various elements appearing in the periodic table, and leverage and analyze the varied potential of chemical substances including covalent bonds, ionic bonds, crystalline and amorphous ones, to obtain desired functions and provide them for the benefit of society. That is inorganic / analytical chemistry.

• Organic Chemistry

  Organic chemistry is the chemistry of organic compounds and materials containing carbon bonds, including substances that are closely related to living creatures. This interesting area covers a wide range of applications, including fibers, medicines and functional materials and, thanks to the huge number of different organic compounds, allows making new discoveries.

• Physical Chemistry

  Aiming to gain an even deeper and more comprehensive understanding of basic problems in fields including organic chemistry and inorganic / analytical chemistry, physical chemistry serves as a theoretical basis for all chemical phenomena and many phenomena related to them.

  Imura Research Group / Kawai Research Group / Kondo Research Group / Uetani Research Group

• Chemical Engineering

  Many products required for everyday life are made through the application of chemical principles. Their production requires ingenuity in many ways when deciding how to use materials and energy, reduce environmental burden and the like. This ingenuity is chemical engineering.
