SKILLS:
Dr. Samperi carries out his research activity in the field of synthesis of new homopolymers and copolymers by reactive blending under controlled conditions, and also in the characterization of polymeric materials by means of advanced mass spectrometry techniques.
He is the co-author of more than 100: publications in the most important international peer-reviewed scientific journals in the polymeric field, book chapters and minor publications. Index H: 30 (Scopus).
His research focuses on the
Synthesis and Characterization of Polymeric Materials, summarized as follows:
- Studies on the chemical reaction that occurs during the reactive mixing of polycondensates (e.g. polyesters, polyamides, polycarbonates, etc.)
- Synthesis of copolymers by Reactive Mixing of commercial polycondensates
- Studies on the thermal degradation mechanism of polymers and their stabilization
- Synthesis and characterization of customized polyethersulfones
- Characterization of polymers by means of advanced mass spectrometry techniques
- Determination of contaminants in PET bottles.
Recently, several studies have focused on the synthesis and characterization of tailored poly (ether sulfone) and on the characterization of volatile (VOCs) and non-volatile organic compounds as contaminants and non-volatile additives in Italian PET bottles.
He collaborates with:
- Dr S. Destri team's (SCITEC - CNR Milan) on the chemical characterization of custom synthesized polyconjugates
- Prof. A. Cappelli (University of Siena) on the characterization of customized polybenzofulvenic derivatives.
He is a reviewer of articles for the main macromolecular journals such as Macromolecules; Polymer, Polymer Degradation & Stability, European Polymer Journal, Journal Analytical and Applied Pyrolysis; Advances in Polymer Technology, Polymers, Materials.
