Luciana Sartore

The research activity of Prof. Sartore is mainly in the field of polymeric materials for advanced engineering applications and covers the aspects related to the preparation and modification of polymers and their physical, chemical, thermal and mechanical characterization. The main researches in progress deal with the development of polymeric materials and nanocomposites for environmental applications and for gas sensing, polymer blends, biomaterials and green plastics. In the past she has been involved in derivatization, purification and characterization of polymers and olygomers and their use in the modification of proteins and peptides for biomedical applications.

Recently special emphasis is given to the development of innovative polymeric biomaterials starting from renewable source, in particular from agrochemical waste and from by-products of tannery industry, for biodegradable packaging and agriculture applications. She is author of more than 70 papers on international reviews and about 15 international patents.
