Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Polymer
  • Organic chemistry
  • Composite material

Chemical engineering, Membrane, Nanofiber, Polymer chemistry and Electrospinning are his primary areas of study. His Chemical engineering research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Layer, Chromatography, Aqueous solution and Polymer. Benjamin Chu interconnects Composite material, Polyacrylonitrile and Filtration in the investigation of issues within Membrane.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Surface modification, Polymerization, Hyaluronic acid, Nuclear chemistry and Scanning electron microscope. His research in Polymer chemistry intersects with topics in Copolymer, Methacrylic acid, Monomer, Small-angle X-ray scattering and Crystallinity. His Electrospinning study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Tissue engineering, Porosity, Nanotechnology, Concentration effect and PLGA.

His most cited work include:

  • Structure and process relationship of electrospun bioabsorbable nanofiber membranes (1451 citations)
  • Laser Light Scattering (1066 citations)
  • Functional electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds for biomedical applications. (771 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of investigation include Polymer chemistry, Chemical engineering, Polymer, Small-angle X-ray scattering and Copolymer. His work investigates the relationship between Polymer chemistry and topics such as Hydrodynamic radius that intersect with problems in Radius of gyration. His research investigates the connection with Chemical engineering and areas like Membrane which intersect with concerns in Nanofiber, Polyacrylonitrile and Filtration.

His work deals with themes such as Electrospinning and Nanofiltration, which intersect with Nanofiber. The Polymer study combines topics in areas such as Chromatography, Capillary electrophoresis and Polyacrylamide. His Small-angle X-ray scattering research focuses on Lamellar structure and how it relates to Crystallinity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Polymer (21.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Membrane (14.23%)
  • Chemical engineering (29.27%)
  • Nanofiber (12.80%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Membrane, Chemical engineering, Nanofiber, Polymer chemistry and Composite material. The various areas that Benjamin Chu examines in his Membrane study include Barrier layer, Polyacrylonitrile and Filtration. Benjamin Chu has included themes like Porosity, Organic chemistry, Small-angle X-ray scattering, Polyethylene terephthalate and Permeation in his Chemical engineering study.

The concepts of his Nanofiber study are interwoven with issues in Cellulose, Electrospinning, Adsorption and Nanofiltration. His Polymer chemistry study also includes

  • Interfacial polymerization together with Polyamide,
  • Polysaccharide together with Chitin. His study in Composite material is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ionic liquid and Graphene.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • High flux nanofiltration membranes based on interfacially polymerized polyamide barrier layer on polyacrylonitrile nanofibrous scaffolds (198 citations)
  • Electrospun nanofibrous membranes for high flux microfiltration (187 citations)
  • Ultra-fine cellulose nanofibers: new nano-scale materials for water purification (170 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Polymer
  • Organic chemistry
  • Composite material

His primary scientific interests are in Membrane, Nanofiber, Chemical engineering, Polymer chemistry and Cellulose. His Membrane study combines topics in areas such as Electrospinning, Composite material and Polyacrylonitrile. His Nanofiber research integrates issues from Nanocomposite, Nanocarriers and Nanofiltration.
