Short CV

Rafail Ioannidis received his undergraduate and master’s degree from the Chemistry department of the University of Ioannina, Greece. During his Master’s thesis (2022) had the opportunity to specialise in the synthesis and characterisation of novel partial biobased poly(propylene terephthalate-co-2,5-furan dicarboxylate) (PPTF) copolyesters aiming to replace their counterparts from mineral resources poly(alkylene terephthalates) in the packaging industry. During his PhD thesis (2023) at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki at the Laboratory of Chemistry and Technology of Polymers and Colors he works as a researcher in a European Union program (HORIZON 2020 Research and Innovation Actions Program under Grant Agreement No. 101070556 [Sustain-a-Print Project]) on innovative, biobased poly(lactic acid)-b-poly(ethylene azelate) (PLA-b-PEAz) blocky copolyesters for printed electronics. As part of the project COST Action FUR4Sustain, CA1822 (European Cooperation in Science and Technology), he visited the University of Bologna, Italy for one month in the Department of Civil, Chemical, Environmental, and Materials Engineering, Alma Mater Studiorum with scientific director Professor Nadia Lotti aiming at the study of permeability PPTF copolyesters. During his studies had presented (oral presentations) as part of his work in 6 international and national scientific conferences, has received a 2nd best poster award in a thermal analysis conference, and is the author of 6 research papers in very distinguished journals such as ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering (IF 8.4), Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry (IF 6.58).
