Mukerrem Cakmak's research focuses on the science of polymers (plastic materials), including how their molecular structure develops during processing methods like injection molding and film stretching, and how this affects mechanical and optical properties. Recent work also explores sustainable or bio-based plastics, such as a hemp-derived material designed to have properties similar to common packaging plastics like PET. This research area would suit students interested in materials science, polymer processing, and the relationship between manufacturing conditions and material performance.
Publication output has been low and irregular over the last decade, averaging under one paper per year with several gap years and no clear growth or decline pattern.
