Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Polymer
  • Catalysis

Hiroshi Uyama spends much of his time researching Organic chemistry, Polymerization, Polymer chemistry, Polymer and Catalysis. His study in Lipase, Ring-opening polymerization, Polyester, Laccase and Enzyme catalysis falls under the purview of Organic chemistry. His work on Triacylglycerol lipase is typically connected to Pseudomonas fluorescens as part of general Lipase study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His Polymerization study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cationic polymerization, Phenylene and Monomer. Hiroshi Uyama interconnects Copolymer, Dispersion polymerization, End-group, Bulk polymerization and Aqueous solution in the investigation of issues within Polymer chemistry. Hiroshi Uyama works mostly in the field of Polymer, limiting it down to topics relating to Curing and, in certain cases, Nanocomposite and Thermosetting polymer.

His most cited work include:

  • Tyrosinase inhibitors from natural and synthetic sources: structure, inhibition mechanism and perspective for the future. (711 citations)
  • Injectable biodegradable hydrogels composed of hyaluronic acid-tyramine conjugates for drug delivery and tissue engineering. (374 citations)
  • Enzymes as Green Catalysts for Precision Macromolecular Synthesis (238 citations)

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

Hiroshi Uyama focuses on Polymer chemistry, Organic chemistry, Chemical engineering, Polymerization and Polymer. His research in Polymer chemistry intersects with topics in Copolymer, End-group and Aqueous solution. His studies in Catalysis, Polyester, Lipase, Candida antarctica and Enzyme catalysis are all subfields of Organic chemistry research.

His work carried out in the field of Chemical engineering brings together such families of science as Porosity, Composite number, Adsorption and Monolith. His Polymerization research includes elements of Phenylene and Monomer. Hiroshi Uyama has researched Polymer in several fields, including Curing and Thermal stability.

He most often published in these fields:

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Chemical engineering (32.37%)
  • Cellulose (9.58%)
  • Composite number (10.85%)

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

Hiroshi Uyama mainly focuses on Chemical engineering, Cellulose, Composite number, Monolith and Polymer. His study in Chemical engineering is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Porosity, Carbon, Carbonization and Adsorption. His Composite number study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Nanocomposite and Scanning electron microscope.

His studies in Monolith integrate themes in fields like Activated carbon, Polymer chemistry and Cyclodextrin. Hiroshi Uyama works in the field of Polymer, focusing on Polymerization in particular. In his research, Catalysis is intimately related to Lipase, which falls under the overarching field of Polyester.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Hierarchical porous carbons from polysaccharides carboxymethyl cellulose, bacterial cellulose, and citric acid for supercapacitor. (27 citations)
  • Hierarchical porous carbons from polysaccharides carboxymethyl cellulose, bacterial cellulose, and citric acid for supercapacitor. (27 citations)
  • Hierarchical porous carbons from a sodium alginate/bacterial cellulose composite for high-performance supercapacitor electrodes (27 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Polymer
  • Catalysis

His main research concerns Chemical engineering, Composite number, Bacterial cellulose, Carbonization and Supercapacitor. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Porosity, Carbon, Polymer and Monolith. His research integrates issues of Polyester, Gloss, Epoxidized soybean oil and Scanning electron microscope in his study of Polymer.

His studies deal with areas such as Pollutant, Triazine, Activated carbon, Adsorption and Polyacrylonitrile as well as Monolith. The concepts of his Supercapacitor study are interwoven with issues in Specific surface area and Mesoporous material. Hiroshi Uyama works mostly in the field of Water treatment, limiting it down to concerns involving Redox and, occasionally, Catalysis.
