Dr. Dunaboyina Sri Maha Vishnu obtained his B.Sc. (Chemistry) and M.Sc. (Chemistry) degrees from Pondicherry University, India and Ph.D. (Chemistry) degree in 2014 from Homi Bhabha National Institute, Mumbai, India. His Ph.D. was in the area of non-aqueous electrochemistry and electroanalytical chemistry with particular emphasis on electrochemical synthesis of materials and their characterization using advanced techniques. Later, he worked at the Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy, University of Cambridge, UK during the period from 17/11/2014 to 07/09/2018. He has been working on various research projects such as developing porous Ti based biomedical alloys for body implant applications and their corrosion chemistry, synthesis of carbon and carbide based nanomaterials for their energy storage applications in lithium ion batteries and supercapacitors, non-aqueous electrochemistry and electrometallurgy for synthesis of novel materials, electrochemical synthesis of alloys and composite materials and evaluation of corrosion behaviour of structural alloys used in petroleum, petrochemical and chemical industries. Dr Vishnu has extensive hands-on experience in handling a remarkably wide range of laboratory equipment. This includes regular laboratory equipment, such as high-temperature furnaces, glove boxes, electrochemical retorts, ball mills, cutting machines, grinding and polishing machines, and sputter coaters; electrochemical instruments, such as potentiostats, impedance analysers, and data acquisition systems; equipment for advanced materials characterisation techniques, such as X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscope with energy-dispersive X-ray analyser (SEM-EDX), transmission electron microscope, simultaneous thermogravimetric analyser and differential scanning calorimeter (TGA/DSC), Raman spectrophotometer, and optical microscope; advanced analytical instruments, such as ICP-OES, and metallurgical oxygen analyser; as well as mechanical testing instruments, such as 4-point bend tester and hardness tester. So far he has published 18 international research articles with many more under review/preparation pending publication. He has presented his research work at 23 international conferences/seminars/workshops through oral and poster presentations. Currently he is an active reviewer for the well known international journals such as Electrochimica Acta, Journal of Electrochemical Society, Journal of Materials Science, Transactions of Nonferrous Metals Society of China, Transactions of the Institutions of Mining and Metallurgy Journals (TIIM C) and so on. He is a Member of Royal Society of Chemistry (MRSC, Membership No. 590988), UK since 2015 and Member of Society for Materials Chemistry (SMC, Membership No. 446), Mumbai, India since 2011.
