Informationen zum Autor Prof. Majid Montazer is a full Professor at the Amirkabir University of Technology in Iran. He graduated from the Textile Engineering Department of the Amirkabir University of Technology (BSc and MSc degrees in Textile Chemistry and Fiber Science). He received his Ph.D. in 1996 from the Textile Institute at Leeds University, UK. Subsequently, he joined the textile department at the Amirkabir University of Technology, Iran, as an assistant professor in 1998. Prof. Montazer has been the corresponding author for about 400 scientific papers and over 11 books/book chapters published by Elsevier. He has received several rewards as the top-cited author from various journals and publications and has also been recognized as one of the best young authors of the year by Elsevier. He is recognized as the top 2% of world scientists. Dr. Tina Harifi is a researcher and lab instructor at Textile Department of Amirkabir University of Technology, where she is part of the Functional Fibrous Structures & Environmental Enhancement (FFSEE) research group. She was born in 1984 and received her BS, MS and PhD degrees in Textile Chemistry and Fiber Science from the Textile Engineering Department of Amirkabir University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, in 2007, 2009 and 2014, respectively. Her PhD thesis, under the supervision of Prof. Majid Montazer, concerned the synthesis and stabilization of TiO2:Ag:Fe for multi-functional finishing of polyester fabric and was selected as one of the best researches from Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic). She has coauthored 28 papers during the last six years and is now a researcher in Nano-Bio Finishing Laboratory of the Textile Engineering Department of Amirkabir University of Technology. In 2017, she received a DFG (German Research Foundation) grant as a visiting scientist for a three-month research stay in Institut für Technische Chemie, Leibniz University, Hannover, Germany. Recently, she has been awarded for co-participation in a challenge proposed by Inocrowd (Innovation-based R&D management systems), Portugal. Her current research interests mainly include synthesis and deposition of nanoparticles on textile substrates for environmental remediation and energy production....
