Andreas Mautner

Andreas Mautner serves as Senior Lecturer in the Department of Materials Chemistry at the Faculty of Chemistry, with 117 publications demonstrating expertise in sustainable advanced materials. His research directly addresses UN Sustainable Development Goals through innovations in environmental and energy applications.

Core research domains include:

• Nanocellulose-based composite development for water purification systems
• Surface property engineering of polymer-nanofiber hybrids
• Textile waste conversion into functional biopolymers
• Fungal biomass-derived carbon networks for energy storage
• Ion exchange mechanisms in hypercrosslinked polymer membranes

Analysis of his 2024 publications reveals a pronounced trajectory toward circular economy solutions, particularly in metal ion removal membranes, textile upcycling, and fungal supercapacitors. These works exhibit strong interdisciplinary integration of materials chemistry with environmental engineering principles.
