RESEARCH INTEREST

To develop innovative particulate (Colloidal/Nano/Bio materials) based systems for next generation processes and devices that sustain and improve the economic well being of the nation and contribute to the quality of the environment and public health. We conduct a blend of fundamental and applied research across a broad range of industry sectors and research areas including; dispersibility of nano materials including CNTs and graphene, superhydrophobicity, transparent conducting thin films, energy storage, ceramics & CNTs/graphene based coatings, graphene/CNTs reinforced composite materials. The underlying scientific theme that connects all of the activities is the chemistry and physics of interfaces.

Dispersibility of CNTs/Graphene/Graphene oxide and other nano particulate matters, and fundamental aspects of dispersion in aqueous/non-aqueous medium. Rheology of CNTs/graphene oxide suspension etc.

Dispersion of Nano Particulate Matter

Transparent Conducting Composite Thin Films

Fabrication of transparent conducting CNT-reinforced composite thin films by in-situ polymerization technique. The solution based in-situ polymerization technique promises a simple, efficient and scalable manufacturing process for a variety of substrate and devices vs. current ITO based complex deposition techniques. Thin, transparent conducting films play a huge role in modern electronics, mainly for electrode applications in devices such as flat panel display, plasma display, liquid crystal display, touch screen, solar reflecting glass, solar cells, and sensor devices, organic light emitting diodes etc.

Superhydrophobic Engineering Materials

Fabrication of highly transparent and flexible super hydrophobic thin films with good thermal and mechanical stability by mimicking the surface of lotus leaves by controlling the roughness and topography of hydrophobic surfaces by facile inexpensive sol-gel

Page 6: BPS Updated CV.pdf

technique. It has wide range of applications starting from self-cleaning materials to marine engineering materials where salt resistance is required.

Functional/Structural Nanostructured Composite Coatings

Functional/structural nanostructured ceramics/composite coatings on engineering materials by different processing routes including electrophoretic deposition, spin coating, dip coating, sol-gel coatings for application in oxidation and corrosion resistance. Corrosion control of metals is of technical, economical, environmental, and aesthetical importance. Smart coatings are one of the areas, apart from above mention coating fields, which is defined as any coating that changes materials properties in response to an environmental stimulus. Coating have been engineered that link changes in light, temperature, humidity, pressure, electrical current pH, to a variety of outputs.

The challenges before the materials scientists are to develop materials for extraordinary energy storage applications with ultrafast charge rate, very high power density, and extraordinary long life cycle. Super capacitors are supposed to be most promising as energy storage for next generation process. Some work is being carried out based on graphene based electrochemical energy storage with the aim of developing super capacitors of high power density and long cycle life.

New Generation Energy Storage Materials

Smart and Intelligent Materials Materials that sense the physical, chemical and biological environment by significantly changing their properties discontinuously or in a controlled fashion are increasing interest for a variety of uses, from the electronics industry, to medicine to space structures. The subject covers vast arrays of adaptive, active and multifunctional materials systems ranging from inorganic solids such as ceramics, metals, functionalised nanotubes and organic polymers and gels to responsive organometallic compounds, metal-organic frameworks, co-ordination polymers, and molecular level smart materials. Forming Process Ceramics wet processing such as gel-casting, slip-casting, tap-casting, to develop near net shape structures for various applications.
