About the authors
Ms. Poulomi Dasgupta completed her graduation with Chemistry (Hons.) from Vidyasagar College (Kolkata) in 2013. She subsequently received her B.Tech. (2016) and M.Tech. (2019) degrees at the Department of Polymer Science and Technology at the University of Calcutta. She was awarded gold medal from the University of Calcutta (during B.Tech.). She was a recipient of GATE fellowship, AICTE, Government of India, during M.Tech. Prior to joining M.Tech., she worked with Indag Rubber, Himachal Pradesh as an R&D executive. Currently, she is associated with TCG Lifescience (Chembiotek Research International) as a Research Chemist. Her area of research was based on ‘Development of thermo-responsive self-healable elastomeric compound and its characterization.’
Mr. Sayan Basak has completed his B.Tech. from the Department of Polymer Science and Technology, University of Calcutta, India (2015–2019), and is currently pursuing hisPh.D. from the School of Polymer Science and Engineering, University of Akron, USA (2019–2024). His undergraduate research interest, along with his present research domain, revolves working with thermoplastic elastomers and multi-component polymer systems, thereby prospecting into new materials to develop smart polymer materials for new-age applications.
Apart from being a budding technologist, he loves to spend his time creating content, which is supported by The Society of Plastic Engineers, The Times of India and Medium on sustainability, recyclability and green chemistry.
