Prof. dr. Aurélie Cayla is a full professor since 2020 at ENSAIT/GEMTEX. She obtained her PhD at Lille University in 2010 in the field of development of conductive multifilament for temperature sensor by melt spinning. Her field of research is dedicated to functionalization by melt spinning process of multifilament: polymer blends, biopolymers, nanocomposites (conductive, flame retardant, antibacterial multifilament….), physico-chemical characterization of polymer surfaces, ageing and durability of polymers.
