The lab studies accident analysis and safety education at universities, as well as safer batteries.

AboutAbout the lab
Applying science and chemistry to university safety
The Environmental Safety Chemistry Lab is part of the Safety and Health Management Division at Osaka University and conducts research on safety and on the environment.
The lab analyzes trends in accidents occurring on campus and develops safety education methods based on the results.
It is also pursuing research on polymer electrolytes aimed at inherently safe lithium-ion secondary batteries, among other topics.
Key terms
- Inherent safety
- What this lab aims for in making lithium-ion secondary batteries safer
- Polymer electrolyte
- A material the lab is researching toward safer lithium-ion secondary batteries; the lab works with low-barrier ion-conducting types
ResearchResearch themes
The Environmental Safety Chemistry Lab is part of the Safety and Health Management Division, which manages the safety and health of everyone who makes up the university, and conducts research on safety and on the environment. In addition to analyzing accidents on campus and developing safety education methods, it also pursues research on batteries and on molecules whose properties change with light.
*Illustrative imageAnalysis of University Accidents and Safety Education
The lab analyzes trends from cases of accidents that occurred on campus and develops safety education methods. It also investigates accidents at universities in Japan and around the world, looks for factors common across various fields, and proposes and teaches safer research and experimental procedures.
*Illustrative imageResearch on Batteries, Photoresponsive Molecules, and Gene Responses
The lab studies low-barrier ion-conducting polymer electrolytes aimed at inherently safe lithium-ion secondary batteries, molecules whose chemical properties can be controlled by light, and the responses at the gene level of organisms to the stress that chemical substances place on living bodies.
