About this Event

IAS Visiting Fellow Dr Robina Begum delivers a seminar on their research -

Crosslinked polymeric particles loaded with metal nanoparticles are called hybrid microgels. These fascinating materials have properties of both organic and inorganic components and have gained significant attention due to their potential applications in catalysis and environmental science. Our group at University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan in collaboration with international researchers from different countries including UK has developed hybrid microgel systems with different compositions/architectures. We have incorporated nanoparticles of different metals into the microgels made of different monomers and co-monomers. We have studied potential of the hybrid systems towards degradation of toxic chemicals and catalytic organic transformations. This talk is an introduction of our work published in recent years.

Arrivals from 11:45 am for a 12:00 noon start. For those joining in-person, lunch will be served after the seminar from 1:00pm.

International House can be found here on the campus map.
