Name: Amin Abbasi 

Title: Postdoctoral Researcher 

Qualifications: Ph.D., M.Sc., and B.Sc. 

Areas of Interest: Polymer science and engineering, Advanced composites, Process and product optimization 

Amin holds a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering, an M.Sc. in Chemical Engineering with a specialization in Polymer Engineering, and a B.Sc. in Chemical Engineering. He is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Technological University of the Shannon (TUS), where his work focuses on the design and processing of advanced polymers and composites tailored for industrial applications. Amin has extensive experience with a wide range of polymer processing and characterization techniques, including extrusion, injection moulding, compression moulding, hand lay-up, mechanical testing, rheology, DSC, TGA, FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, NMR, XRD, GPC, UV-Vis spectroscopy, SEM, TEM, and elemental analysis. He is also skilled in optimization and predictive modeling methods such as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Design of Experiments (DOE). He has authored numerous research papers published in prestigious peer-reviewed journals and presented his work at leading international conferences. His contributions to polymer science and engineering have earned him multiple research awards. Prior to his current role, Amin conducted research on sulfur-based polymers as a novel class of sustainable and environmentally friendly materials. This included functionalization techniques and applications in water treatment and controlled-release fertilizers. He has also developed a range of green polymers derived from vegetable oils, as well as fibrous and microporous polymeric ion-exchange adsorbents for water purification.
