Information

Dr. Francesca Cicogna (female) has a Master degree in Chemistry (1996) and PhD degree in Chemical Science (2000) both at the University of Pisa, is coauthor of 40 peer reviewed papers, 2 patents, 3 book chapters, and has more than 60 contributions to conferences (H-index = 14). She has experience in the functionalization of polymers (from oil and bio-based sources) by free radical post-polymerization reactions; functional polymers containing active molecules (chromophores and antioxidant) and functional nanocomposites; and surface modification of polymer by photografting. She has been a team member of the CNR Research Unit in several national and international research projects (PRIN2015, PRIN 2012, MIUR FIRB 2010, FP7 Project NMP.2011.LARGE.5 “DIBBIOPACK”, Project “Sustainable Manufacturing” by Cluster Fabbrica Intelligente; Project granted by Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio, “POLOPTEL).
