Dr Md J. Nine is a Research/Teaching fellow working at the School of Chemical Engineering and Advanced Materials.

His research is based in ARC Research Hub for Graphene Enabled Industry Transformation, University of Adelaide, Australia. Dr. Nine’s current research interests involve colloids and interfaces science for the synthesis and application of multifunctional coatings based on graphene and other 2D materials. The applications of coatings are not limited to self-cleaning, corrosion-resistant, fire-retardant, acoustic insulation, anti-bacterial, radiation shielding and sensing.

He was awarded Doctoral Research Medal as well as Postgraduate Alumni University Medal for outstanding research at PhD level at the University of Adelaide, Australia. He was also awarded Carbon Journal prize-2018 for an outstanding PhD thesis in carbon materials science and technology. His PhD works generated three intellectual properties (IPs) on graphene technology and one of them was licenced to an industry. He has published more than 61+ scientific journal papers, 4 patents, 4 book chapters, and 15+ conference presentations in the area of colloids and interfaces, including graphene and other carbon nanomaterials.

Dr Nine also serves as an editorial board member of the journal "Polymers " (MDPI) as well as a member of the Extended advisory board of the journal "Carbon " in Elsevier.

Background

My current research interest is the synthesis and application of multifunctional inks and coatings based on 2D materials. The applications of coatings include superwetting surface, oil-water separation, corrosion-resistant, bio-implant, fire-retardant, and optoelectronic devices.
