This researcher works on polymer materials science, with a focus on self-healing and recyclable polymer networks such as vitrimers, organogels, and hydrogels that use dynamic chemical bonds to enable reprocessing, shape-memory behavior, and soft actuation. Related work also touches on nanoporous catalytic materials, nanoparticle-based sensing, and more recently perovskite-dye hybrid materials for energy transfer. The work is largely chemistry-driven, combining synthesis, materials characterization, and applications in soft robotics, sensing, and sustainable materials.
