Chimie Balard Carnot Institute is a french research
structure committed to partnership research
development. It combines scientific excellence with
professionalism to develop research for companies’
innovation.
The expertise gathered at the Chimie Balard Carnot
Institute allows for an integrative, multi-scale
approach, ranging from molecules to materials and
finally to processes.
It’s research activity core lies in the development,
characterization and study of functional molecules
and materials for energy, sustainable chemistry,
environmental protection and health.

Supported by technological platforms for synthesis, analysis, and characterization,
the Chimie Balard Carnot Institute offers a wealth of contextual expertise in
synthetic chemistry to develop multi-scale systems, from molecule to material.
Main programs:
energy through components and assemblies for fuel cells,
materials for electrochemical energy storage and conversion,
(electro) chemical production of H
2
, the preservation of resources
and valorisation of non-food biomass, bio and synthetic fuels,
environmental protection through respectful chemistry
for sustainable development based on the use of renewable
resources, the substitution of hazardous compounds,
the development of biodegradable materials, catalysis,
process intensification and water treatment,
health through the synthesis of biologically active molecules,
vectors, and exploratory probes of living beings; hybrid
materials and nanostructured composites for the transport
and controlled release of active substances, medical devices.
