Current graduate students

ABSTRACT: I will present a nano-fibril composites technology that has been invented at the University of Toronto. This technology enhances the mechanical properties and the foaming ability of various resins.

ABSTRACT:  It appears that innovation means at least several things to different people – any new product or service, value creation or a particular “culture of innovation.” But these and many other “interpretations” of innovation are less meaningless, as this author believes In fact the only thing that matters is whether an innovation creates impacts such as wealth / job creation and social advancement. And the only metric for determining that wealth is net cash flow.

Physical and Chemical Approaches for Ocular Drug Delivery"

Registration is FREE - Coffee and Cookies will be available

ABSTRACT:  This talk will focus on presenting many of the new and exciting developments in thin film deposition technology which are required by many of today’s high performance applications, such as semiconductors, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic and perovskite photovoltaics, superconducting and magnetic devices, precision optics, and more.

ABSTRACT:

Part A: Investigation of the Interplay of Reaction and Transport within Biomass Particle during Fast Pyrolysis

ABSTRACT:  In commercial Li-ion batteries, well-ordered close-packed oxides, particularly, layered lithium transition metal oxides, LiTMO₂ (TM = Ni, Mn, Co, Al), are widely used. Despite the high theoretical capacity of these layered oxides (> 270 mAh/g), they are typically operated to deliver a capacity of less than 200 mAh/g to attain good cycling and safety attributes.

ABSTRACT:  Membrane technology has now established itself as an indispensable component in chemical and processing industries. The presentation will give a historical account on membrane research and development in China over the past 6 decades.
