The unifying theme of our researches in Physical Chemistry can be classified into two broad strands. One strand involves experimental studies of the connections and relations among the underlying structure of a material, its properties, its processing methods and its performance in multiple industrial applications in medical, plastic, dye, textile, electronic, pharmaceutical and food industries as well as environmental remediation. The researches also include surface/interface functionalization and modification of (bio) polymers, carbon-based materials and semiconductor catalysts for designing novel materials with targeted properties. The other strand covers theoretical chemistry employing computational modelling and simulation to assist in solving chemical problems including how matter behaves on a molecular and atomic level and how chemical reactions occur. In many cases, through internal and external research collaborations, computational studies are complemented by experimental investigations, leading to important advances as better theories are developed.
