Surfactant based formulations for industrial application , Coatings for metal corrosion inhibition, Enhancement Oil recovery (EOR). Surfactant-alkane synergy for agrochemical spary, ink & paints, personal care application etc.

My job was to study the nano-mechanical properties of surfactant film adsorbed at solid-liquid interface using atomic force microscopy. 1: Experimental set-up design, purchase of required part, assembling parts and testing the set-up. 2: Writing reports and project management with given timeline, preparing articles for publication purpose (already submitted) .

To find out: 1: How do surfactants selectively adsorb at solid-liquid interfaces (mechanism) ? 2: Experimental set-up design, purchase of required part, assembling parts and testing the set-up. 3: Writing reports and project management with given timeline, preparing articles for publication purpose (already submitted) .

1: Selection of material based on the required application. 2: Structure-property relation for composites. 3: Co-relation between material's micro and macro (bulk) properties. 4: Material's physical (XRD, SEM/EDS, AFM etc) and electrical characterization (I-V, Impedance etc).

Study on Field emission characteristics and imaging of carbon nanostructures.
