About me

I received my PhD degree in Materials Processing in 2002. I then conducted research as a visiting scholar and postdoc fellow at the Centre for Advanced Materials Technology, The University of Sydney. I joined the University of South Australia as a lecturer in 2007 and was promoted to a full professor in 2019.

About me

My research focuses on the development of applied functional (nano)composites through processing engineering materials with a range of cost-effective, safe nanomaterials, aiming to engage with industry in the design, development, and manufacturing of advanced composite materials. For example, I researched with a plastic manufacturing plant in New South Wales, which resulted in commissioning of a plastic compounding system in June 2015. As another example, my team developed a novel stretchable strain sensor (‘Highly Sensitive, Wearable, Durable Strain Sensors and Stretchable Conductors Using Graphene/Silicon Rubber Composites’, Advanced Functional Materials, 2016, 42, 7614; an HiCi paper). Thanks to the financial support from ARC (LP160100717), my team was able to translate this strain sensor research into industry by manufacturing a prototype real-time idler condition monitoring system for industrial belt conveyors, which was delivered to a Perth-based industrial partner in 2018.

My research interests and past projects involve (i) the development of composites with specific functionalities through processing engineering materials with cost-effective, safe nanomaterials, and (ii) the investigation of the structure–property relations and fracture mechanisms of these composites. I pioneered the development of (i) polymer/nanosheet composites by molecular entanglements (‘A new strategy to exfoliate silicone rubber/clay nanocomposites’, Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2005, 26, 830; ‘Interface-tuned epoxy/clay nanocomposites’, Polymer, 2011, 52, 497) and interface bonding (‘A novel method for preparation of disorderly exfoliated epoxy/clay nanocomposite’, Chemistry of Materials, 2004, 16, 757), (ii) cost-effective few-layer graphene (also named graphene nanoplatelets; ‘A facile approach to chemically modified graphene and its polymer nanocomposites’, Advanced Functional Materials, 2012, 22, 2735) for composites processing (‘Graphene Platelets and Their Polymer Composites: Fabrication, Structure, Properties, and Applications’, Advanced Functional Materials, 2018, 28, 1706705), and (iii) facile processing for polymer/nanosheet composites (‘Epoxy/graphene platelets nanocomposites with two levels of interface strength’, Polymer, 2011, 52, 1603; an HiCi paper). My research on these topics has resulted in over 130 refereed journal papers, and a complete, most updated publication list is at Google Scholar.
