Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Instituto de Química de São Carlos (IQSC) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Got his bachelor's degree in Chemistry (1962) and PhD in Physical Chemistry (1966) at the Universidad de Buenos Aires. Retired as Full Professor from the University of São Paulo (1938), but still active as Senior Collaborator at the IQSC-USP. Presently main research fellow of the USP Consortium for Photochemistry Technology. Main research areas are Photochemistry and Properties of Microheterogeneous Systems, like photopolymerization, photochemistry of dyes, and photodegradation of polymers. Published over 140 research papers in scientific journals like J. Phys. Chem., J. Photochem. Photobiol., J. Colloid Interf. Sci., Langmuir, Macromolecules, etc. Over 30 Graduate students got their MSc or PhD under my supervision. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The 3D printing technology attached with the CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Design / Computer Aided Manufacturing) works as a strategic area with a high development and innovation potential. Described as an additive technique, the market for 3D printing has great projections for raising their investments and efforts on a desirable work that might lead into a broader application of the technology…
Photoinitiated polymerization is a process widely used in several applications, i.e., among in dentistry (restorations), painting (drying and curing), and photomicrolithography (printed circuit boards). Whereas many studies deal with these processes from a global point of view, only few studies are aimed to determine the basic parameters of the elemental reactions involved in the global p…
Two types of processes related to polymers, in which the presence of visible light is important will be studied: i) light-induced polymerization (photopolymerization); and ii) the degradation of polymers by light (photodegradation). The research of light-initiated polymerizations in systems containing monomers and dyes, or other light absorbing compounds, is the aim of the photoinitiated …

The knowledge of the mechanisms of photodegradation of dyed polymers is of great scientific interest, due to the possibility to enhance the useful life of those materials. These studies involve the presence of dyes, or other cromophores, in the polymeric material, that can be bonded covalently to the polymeric chains or added afterwards. The effect of the UV irradiation on polyacrylates i…
