Li Xiaofang, Director, Institute of Organic Chemistry and Polymer Chemistry
In the past ten years, based on basic and applied research, with the aim of "new catalysts, new polymerization reactions, new materials", our research group has been committed to developing new, efficient and highly selective rare earth/transition metal organic complexes, and exploring their catalytic role in polymer synthesis (especially coordination polymerization reactions) and organic synthesis (especially organic methodology). Many polyolefin with potential industrial application prospects or new polymer materials and organic synthesis reagents which are difficult to be prepared by previous catalysts have been synthesized. Presided over 6 National Natural Science Foundation projects and undertook 1 enterprise cooperation project; Participated in the National Natural Science Foundation project and other 1. So far, he has published more than 60 academic papers in academic journals and conferences at home and abroad, including 61 indexed by SCI, 0 indexed by EI, and 9 authorized patents.
