Gordon Armstrong

Gordon Armstrong is a Lecturer affiliated with the University of Limerick, associated with the Bernal Institute and the Centre for European Studies. His academic contributions span materials chemistry, polymer nanocomposites, and electrochemical technologies.

• Education: PhD in Chemistry (2003), BSc in Chemistry (1998)
• Professional Roles: Visiting Lecturer at ENSIL, France (active since at least 2019)

Research Interests: Specializes in structure-property relationships in polymers and nanocomposites, with expertise in:

• Functional nanocomposites (thermal/electrical conductivity, infection resistance)
• Supramolecular chemistry and polyoxometalate systems
• Advanced characterization techniques (AFM, Raman, SEM)
• Electrochemical sensors and ionic liquid applications

Scientific Activity Trends: Recent publications (2017-2019) focus on polyoxometalate-doped conducting polymers, particularly for environmental remediation and electrochemical stability studies. His work bridges materials synthesis with applied analytical techniques.
