Prof. Dr. Renivaldo José dos Santos São obtained his master’s degree in physics in 2010 and completed his doctorate in materials science and technology in 2014, both from the Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho. His skills and expertise mainly include rubber, gold nanoparticles, elastomers, polymers, waste, material characterization, polymeric materials, recycling, and nanoparticles.
Prof. Dr. Flávio Camargo Cabrera received his master’s degree in 2012 and obtained his doctorate in 2015, both in materials science and technology from the São Paulo State University Júlio de Mesquita Filho. In the last five years, he developed a post-doctoral internship at UNESP in Presidente Prudente. During his academic life, he developed the synthesis of gold nanoparticles using Hevea brasiliensis latex, framed as “green chemistry”, built the first flexible natural rubber substrate with gold nanoparticles for sensing by Raman amplification phenomena (SERS and SERRS), and finally , the first natural rubber microfluidic device, applied to electrochemical sensing and compound identification as well as in the synthesis of nanomaterials. Currently, he is hired as an assistant professor at the Universidade Estadual Paulista-Campus de Rosana, developing projects in the areas of reusing waste as filler in polymer composites, synthesis of nanoparticles and polymeric encapsulants used in photovoltaic cells. He is linked as a collaborator, acting as a master’s advisor in the Postgraduate Program in Materials Science (PPGCM) at UNESP.
