Swapnil L. Sonawane

About

My expertise lies in synthesizing and characterizing small organic molecules, fluorescent dyes, acrylates, polymers and transforming waste and bio-based polymers into high-value materials. Additionally, I engage in descriptive research within chemical education. I am committed to fostering the next generation of chemists and contributing to national development by inspiring young minds to explore the field of organic and materials chemistry
