Dr. Saima Sultana did her MSc and PhD from the department of Chemistry AMU in the year 2007 and 2010 respectively. The focus of her doctoral thesis was "Studies and Preparation of Superionic Conductors by Solid State Reactions". She was later awarded the Research Associateship by the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and her project was related to the synthesis and study of photocatalytic and electrical conducting polymer sensitized nanocomposites. She has also received the Young Scientist Research Grant by the Council of Science & Technology, Uttar Pradesh for her project entitled "Synthesis, Characterization and photocatalytic Activity of selected nanomaterials for the waste water decontamination and energy generation". She has synthesized various nanocomposites using metal and metal oxides, ferrites and graphene oxide nanoparticles along with conducting polymers and use them as electrical conductors, photocatalyst and sensors.
Moreover, she has also prepared bio-nanocomposites materials using natural polymer during her post doctoral work as well. She has used X-ray diffraction, fourier transform infrared, differential thermal analysis and differential calorimetry analysis along with electron microscopy for the characterization of nanomaterials and polymer (bio)nanocomposites.
Dr. Saima has published her work in international peer reviewed journals like Ionics, Physica B, Electroanalysis, Chemosphere, Applied Energy, Journal of Alloys & Compounds, RSC Advances, New Journal of Chemistry, Bioresource Technology, Adv. in Colloid and Interface Science etc along with book chapters with international publishers. She has recently filed two patents on the development of chemical and gas sensors. In addition she has presented research articles in national and international conferences as well. She is life time member of the Chemical Research Society of India, Indian Council of Chemists as well as the Indian Science Congress.
