In
our lab we develop carbon based beads, nanofibers, nanoparticles,
nanotubes and biopolymeric nanofibers to address various
environmental contaminants like arsenic, mercury, chromium,
fluoride, pesticides, pharmaceutical wastes etc. We endeavor
to initiate an IIT Kanpur-centric mission on catalytic/photocatalytic
treatment of pollutants present in water effluents from
various laboratories. It is envisaged that understanding
of the fundamental chemistry, development of novel (photo)catalytic
frameworks for water decontamination will enrich fundamental
science in this area. Other interests concern construction
of thin films, coordination models and biological soft
matter. We synthesize and characterize environmentally
benign cellulose-clay nanocomposites. We use surface functionalization
route to enhance interfacial binding between cellulose
and clay to improve mechanical properties of cellulose-clay
nanocomposites.
