Biography:
Rafał Januszewski studied Chemistry at the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Poland and graduated as MS in 2014. At the same year he started PhD studies in research group of Prof. Bogdan Marciniec at the same institution. He carries out his doctoral dissertation in cooperation with the Synthos S.A. In PhD thesis he studies effects of the inert and functional groups bonded to the silicon on the hydrosilylation of polyene materials in presence of transition metal complexes. He is interested in homogeneous catalysis, hybrid materials, flame retardants and polymer chemistry. He has published 13 articles in international scientific journals.
Title : The effect of substituents bonded to silicon on the efficiency of the hydrosilylation of polybutadiene
