About
A polymer science graduate who is currently indulged in learning about sustainable aspects of materials and how complex materials used by today's urban society are made to align with the ideology of sustainable development. I am interested in topics related to applied sustainable polymer sciences as I believe that replacing current special application polymers in the market by sustainable smart functional material is one of the best practices for the future.
