Sustainable Biocomposites
EF 2020-21
Résumé
Dr. Misra’s proposed research focuses on creating advanced environmentally friendly
materials from sustainable resources, recycled materials, and waste-stream
feedstock to reduce landfilling, pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions. It involves
the design and engineering of biocomposites by employing advanced hybridization
strategies at the matrix and reinforcement levels. Biocarbon and a wide range of
nanomaterials impart improved properties and added functionality. The development
of green products such as nano-enhanced multi-layer packaging and 3D printed parts
will contribute to zero-waste manufacturing and a circular economy. The success of
this research will advance the biocomposite field and support manufacturing sectors,
in Canada and internationally.
