Introduction to a Novel Fully-Recyclable, Sustainable and Eco-friendly Lightweight Composite

Masaru Tanaka

Kyushu University

Japan

Tanaka worked for TERUMO Co. (Leading Medical Devices Company in Japan). In 2000 he moved to Hokkaido University and in 2007 he moved to Tohoku University. His developed medical devices are commercially available in the global clinical market as a world share No.1. He was a Visiting Scientist, at Dept. of New Materials and Biosystems, Max-Planck-Institute (2008-2009). In 2009 he was awarded a full professorship at Yamagata University. Since 2015, he has been at Kyushu University as a full Professor. Thus far, he has published over 230 papers in peer reviewed journals (H-index 61), 50 book chapters, 135 others, 250 patents, over 100 invited talks at International Conferences including Society for Biomaterials Annual Meeting. He is a Fellow of Biomaterials Science and Engineering and an executive director of the Japanese Society for Biomaterials, and a committee member at IUPAC polymer division, and organized many international conferences as an international advisory board. He received the Japanese Society for Biomaterials Award, the SPSJ Asahi Kasei Award, and the British Council PMI2 Connect-Research Co-operation (UK) Award.

Beckry Abdel-Magid

Winona State University

USA

Beckry Abdel-Magid is Chair, Professor, and a founding faculty of the department of composite materials engineering at Winona State University. Dr. Abdel-Magid holds two master’s degrees in civil engineering and engineering mechanics and a PhD in Structural Engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He started his academic career at the University of Maine and was recruited to start a new program in composite materials engineering at Winona State University in 1990. At WSU Dr. Abdel-Magid worked in establishing the only undergraduate program in composite materials engineering in the US and chaired the department for more than 15 years. His research and publications are in characterization and durability of composite materials and application of composites in civil and mechanical infrastructure. He is a recipient of a Fulbright Scholarship, Fulbright Specialist Award, and an ASEE NASA Langley Fellowship. He is a senior research faculty in the Advanced Structures and Composites Center at the University of Maine.

Gemma Buron Moles

IRTA

Spain

Dr. Buron-Moles is a biologist specialized in agro-food biology and biotechnology. She holds an international PhD in Agricultural and Food Science and Technology from the University of Lleida (Spain) and has been awarded prestigious fellowships, including the MSCA Individual Fellowship, Beatriu de Pinós, and the Ramón y Cajal. She has carried out research at KU Leuven, USDA, Carlsberg Research Laboratory, and INSA Toulouse. Currently a Ramón y Cajal researcher at IRTA (Spain), she leads innovative projects on microbial-based solutions for plastic degradation and is launching a new research line on the impact of microplastics on soils and plants.

Integrated chemical and microbial strategies for polyethylene biodegradation

Qiming Zhang

The Pennsylvania State University

United States

Qiming Zhang is Harvey F. Brush Endowed Chair at the College of Engineering of Pennsylvania Stete University, USA. His research covers electronic materials and devices. Zhang discovered relaxor polymers which possess giant electroactuation, high dielectric constant, and high electromechanical coupling. The polymers have been commercialized by Arkema. He developed ferroelectrics with giant electrocaloric effect for solid state cooling. His group developed dilute nanocomposites and polymer immiscible blends, totally new avenues for dielectrics of high energy density over broad temperatures. He has more than 370 refereed journal publications with an H-index of 103.
