Author Information

Prof. Sabu Thomas is a Professor of Polymer Science and Engineering and the Director of the School of Energy Materials at Mahatma Gandhi University, India. Additionally, he is the Chairman of the Trivandrum Engineering Science & Technology Research Park (TrEST Research Park) in Thiruvananthapuram, India. He is the founder director of the International and Inter-university Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology at Mahatma Gandhi University and the former Vice-Chancellor of the same institution. Prof. Thomas is internationally recognized for his contributions to polymer science and engineering, with his research interests encompassing polymer nanocomposites, elastomers, polymer blends, interpenetrating polymer networks, polymer membranes, green composites, nanocomposites, nanomedicine, and green nanotechnology. His groundbreaking inventions in polymer nanocomposites, polymer blends, green bionanotechnology, and nano-biomedical sciences have significantly advanced the development of new materials for the automotive, space, housing, and biomedical fields. Dr. Thomas has been conferred with Honoris Causa (DSc) by the University of South Brittany, France. Dr. Hanna J. Maria is a Senior Researcher at the International and Inter University Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, Mahatma Gandhi University, India. She previously held postdoctoral research positions at the Centre for Advanced Materials, Qatar University, the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Yamaguchi University, Japan, the Centre RAPSODEE, IMT Mines, Albi, France, and the Siberian Federal University, Krasnoyarsk, Russia. Dr. Maria has published 20 articles and 10 book chapters, and co-edited 4 books. Her research has focused on natural rubber composites and their blends, thermoplastic composites, lignin, nanocellulose, bio-nanocomposites, nanocellulose, rubber-based composites and nanocomposites, and hybrid nanocomposites.
