Description
Daniel Persaud and eleven colleagues build MAP-E, a self-run high-throughput platform for electrochemistry. Corrosion testing is slow, hands-on, and shaped by operator technique, which limits large, high-quality data for materials work. MAP-E pairs robotic liquid and sample handling with multi-channel voltage control. It extracts corrosion metrics with no human step.
Checks against an ASTM G61-analog benchmark showed steady results, with pitting potential varying by 75 mV across 32 runs. The team then used MAP-E to map pH-chloride stability maps for 304 stainless steel, guided by uncertainty-driven sampling on a Gaussian process model. The platform cuts operator input and speeds search of new settings.
