Male, born on April 22, 1914.
Graduated from the Department of Chemistry, Zhejiang University in 1935.
Professor, Fudan University.
Wu improved the method for the determination of
inner resistance of batteries. He systematically studied the electrochemistry of
China¡¯s rich element, antimony, and he used the curve of differential
capacity-potential to obtain the zero charge potential of antimony being
-0.19(0.02V, which revised the literature data and is adopted by the world. He
also obtained a number of valuable results in the research for practical
purposes, such as the determination of optimum concentration of electrolyte for
the production of reserve battery, the search for electrolytic solution used in
sensor of tiltmeter, and the work on conductive liquid for flight platform. In
his research on high energy lithium batteries, he creatively put forward the
intercalation reaction mechanism of Li/CuO battery. This mechanism revised
predecessors¡¯s view and has been accepted worldwide.
He was elected Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1980.
