I am Postdoctoral researcher (JSPS fellow), currently working in Tohoku University, Japan. My major field of study is in surface engineering dealing with surface integrability of polymer-metal systems. My focus is in the study of surface interaction during high strain rate deformation and the subsequent adhesion of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene on metallic surfaces.

About Me

MY LATEST RESEARCH

Understanding the Nano-ceramic/UHMWPE interactions

We focus on mechanistically understanding the Nano-ceramic/UHMWPE interactions by applying the spray condition to different UHMWPE-nano ceramic composite particles surfaces.

Development of UHMWPE coating

We developed a technique to successfully coat UHMWPE on various metallic surfaces using downstream injection cold spray systems.
