Research group Aji Mathew group
The focus of the group is biobased materials for different applications.
Group description
Materials for environment
- Fully biobased membranes/ filters for water purification
- Surface chemistry and interactions, mechanical properties, viscoelastic properties, in situ SAXS
- Atomic force microscopy (understanding properties at nano scale, colloidal probe)
Materials for health
- Biobased materials for medical applications
- Tissue engineering, wound dressing, antifouling and antibacterial materials
Synthesis and processing methods for sustainable materials
- Nanocellulose and nanochitin isolation and characterization
- Designing of recycling and circularity of materials
