Andreas Sapalidis was born in Florina, Greece (1979) and studied Petroleum Engineering in the Technological Institute of Kavala, Greece (2002). In 2004 obtained a Master in Science from Department of Chemistry (Industrial Chemistry/Polymer Science) from the National and Kapodestrian University of Athens and on 2009 a PhD from the same Department with Thesis entitled "Preparation and characterization of polymeric nanocomposites materials". He is a member of Membranes and Microporous Materials for Environmental Separations Laboratory (MESL) since 2001, with research interests the novel preparation and characterization techniques of nanostructured materials. He has extensive experience on the following characterization techniques: Atomic force microscopy, SEM, TEM, permeability methods, scattering methods (X-ray & neutrons), mechanical properties, Thermogravimetric analysis, Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Nitrogen and Mercury porosimetry and Absorption methods. He is an author of 27 research papers (>600 citations, h-index 12, i10 index 15) and 1 book chapter. He participated in 15 European and national projects while he scientifically supervised one national and currently coordinates a European project in the area of seawater desalination. See less
