About the Author

Dr. Rajender Boddula is currently working as CAS-PIFI Fellow in the CAS Key Laboratory of Nanosystems and Hierarchical Fabrication, National Center for Nanoscience and Technology, Beijing, China. He has published many scientific articles in international peer-reviewed journals and has authored nine book chapters, and also serving as editorial board member and referee for reputed international peer-reviewed journals. His specialized areas of energy conversion and storage technologies, which include nanomaterials, graphene, polymer composites, heterogeneous catalysis, photoelectrocatalytic water splitting, biofuel cell, and supercapacitor applications Dr. Mohd Imran Ahamed is a research associate in the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, and he has received his Ph.D on the topic “Synthesis and characterization of inorganic-organic composites heavy metals selective cation-exchangers and their analytical applications” from Aligarh Muslim University India in 2019. He has published several research and review articles in SCI journals. His research focuses on ion-exchange chromatography, wastewater treatment and analysis, actuators, enzymatic biofuel cell, and electrospinning. Dr. Ahamed has published 18 research articles in international journals of repute, more than fifteen book chapters, and 20 published by renowned international publishers. Prof. Abdullah M. Asiri is the Head of the Chemistry Department at King Abdulaziz University since October 2009 and he is the founder and the Director of the Center of Excellence for Advanced Materials Research (CEAMR) since 2010 till date. He is the Professor of Organic Photochemistry. His research interest covers color chemistry, synthesis of novel photochromic and thermochromic systems, synthesis of novel coloring matters and dyeing of textiles, materials chemistry, nanochemistry and nanotechnology, polymers and plastics. A major achievement of Prof. Asiri is the discovery of tribochromic compounds, a class of compounds which change from slightly or colorless to deep colored when subjected to small pressure or when grind. This discovery was introduced to the scientific community as a new terminology published by IUPAC in 2000. This discovery was awarded a patent from European Patent office and from UK patent. He is also a member of the Editorial Board of various journals of international repute. He is the Vice- President of Saudi Chemical Society (Western Province Branch). He holds four USA patents, more than 800 Publications in international journals, seven book chapters, and ten books Dr. Inamuddin is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Applied Chemistry at the Zakir Husain College of Engineering and Technology, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India. He has extensive research experience in multidisciplinary fields of analytical chemistry, materials chemistry, electrochemistry, renewable energy, and environmental science. He has worked on different research projects funded by various government agencies and universities and is the recipient of several awards, including the Fast Track Young Scientist Award and the Young Researcher of the Year Award 2020, Aligarh Muslim University, India. He has published nearly 200 research articles in various international scientific journals, 18 book chapters, and numerous edited books with well-known publishers.
