Nanotechnology in the Automotive Industry

Huaihe Song is a Professor at the State Key Laboratory of Chemical Resource Engineering, College of Materials and Engineering, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, China. He has 28 years of experience in the field of carbon materials research. His research area is in the preparation of advanced carbon materials and their applications, including pitch-based carbon materials (mesophase pitch and mesocarbon microbeads), carbon nanomaterials (carbon nanotubes, graphene, carbon-encapsulated metal nanomaterials, and onion-like carbons), carbon-based materials for energy storage (lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors), and mesoporous carbons (ordered mesoporous carbons and carbon aerogels).

Ghulam Yasin is a researcher in the School of Environment and Civil Engineering at Dongguan University of Technology, Guangdong, China. His expertise covers the design and development of hybrid devices and technologies of carbon nanostructures and advanced nanomaterials for for real-world impact in energy-related and other functional applications.

Prof. N.B. Singh is presently Emeritus Professor at the Dept. of Chemistry, Sharda University. During his 50+ years of academic experience, Prof. Singh has also been Head of the Chemistry Department and Dean of the Faculty of Science at DDU Gorakhpur University (India), as well as an Alexander von Humboldt fellow in Germany, where he has worked at RWTH Aachen University, Clausthal University of Technology, University Kassel, and Technical University of Dortmund. Dr. Singh received a NETZSCH – ITAS Award in 2002 for his contributions in the area of thermal analysis and an ISCAS Gold Medal and Lifetime Achievement Award from the Indian Association for Solid State Chemists and Allied Scientists at VIT in 2009 for his contributions in the area of solid-state chemistry. Dr. Singh is former President of the Indian Association for Solid State Chemists and Allied Scientists. His research currently focuses on eutectic alloys, nanomaterials for construction, glasses and cementitious materials, green chemistry, and water purification.
