Polyaniline-multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PANI- MWCNTs) composite revisited: An efficient and reusable material for methyl orange dye removal, Diamond & Related Materials, volume 117 , May 2021,108455 [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.diamond.2021.108455] Sudhindra Pete, Radhika Alikkal Kattil, Libi Thomas.

I am a Chemistry enthusiast , looking for PhD opportunity in the field of science, specifically related to electrochemistry. Having done my Master's project in electrochemistry I have done a good reading of literature and the impact this work holds for future. I worked with Polyaniline and its binary and ternary composites to understand its application in supercapacitors. It was found that ternary composite showed the highest specific conductance, hence it is more effective as electrode material in supercapacitors. I will be able to apply the knowledge and learnings from my thesis work in an efficient manner in any future work related to electrochemistry. I also have a paper publication, where I worked with Polyaniline-multiwalled carbon nanotubes composites to study its catalytic property, it was found to be an efficient and reusable material for methyl orange dye removal. All the projects I have worked on so far involved the synthesis, characterization and applications of the conducting polymer Polyaniline , and its composites. As a student of science I have always wanted to make a difference in the lives of people through my subject of expertise. I read about the goal of the research work that is offered, and I am very much interested to get my hands and brain work on it. I am eager to learn the electrochemical doping of conjugated polymers, with my prior experience in electrochemical studies, I believe I will be able to perform the experiments with ease. I also read about the various applications electronic textiles finds its way into, the growing demand they have in the current day, hence the impact this research work is going to make is immense. Research is my passion, from literature survey to experimental setup all the way to result and discussion, I enjoy every bit of the process. Looking forward to new learnings, techniques, ideas and collaboration with a team of like minded people.
