Dr.ABOUELMAGD has a polymer chemistry background. He received his PhD from Tokyo Tech-Japan. His work was focused on Synthesis of Perfluorinated well-defined architectural polymers using the living anionic polymerization technique. He also was involved in synthesis of other complicated structures like multi-exact block-copolymers, exact graft block-copolymers, star, and star-branched block-copolymers. Ahmed interests to apply his skills in polymer synthesis for establishing new compatibilizers for polymer blends as part of industrial application. He also interested in synthesis of nano metal wires (Cu, Ag, and Ni) for application in conducting polymer composites. Currently, he is responsible for developing of new composites based on biologically synthesized polymers using different fillers for better industrial and environmental applications.
