Dr. Pingan Song is currently Associate Professor and Australian Research Council (ARC) Future Fellow. He obtained his PhD degree in Chemistry from the Department of Polymer Science and Engineering, Zhejiang University in 2009. Since 2009, he joined Zhejiang A&F University as Lecturer and then promoted to Associate Professor (2011) and Full Professor (2016). In late 2016, he moved to Centre for Future Materials, University of Southern Queensland as Associate Professor. His research focuses on the synthesis of eco-benign fire retardants for polymer materials, fire-warning sensors, and polymer blends and modifications as well as the understanding of processing-structure-property correlations.
Dr. Yan Zhang obtained her bachelor and Ph.D. degree in Chemistry Engineering and Technology from Tianjin University of Technology in 2000 and Zhejiang University in 2006. Since 2007, she worked as Teacher at NingboTech University (which was called as Ningbo Institute of Technology, Zhejiang University), China. Her research focuses on synthesis of flame retardants derived from biomass or waste polymers for multifunctional polymeric materials.
Dr. Xin Wen obtained his bachelor's degree in Chemistry Engineering and Technology from Jilin University in 2005, and his Ph.D. degree in Chemistry and Physics of Polymers at Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry (CIAC), Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2010. Since 2018, he worked as scientific researcher at West Pomeranian University of Technology, Poland. His research focuses on synthesis of flame retardants for high-performance polymer composites, recycle of waste polymers, and functional nano-carbon materials. |
