Kübra Günay

Kübra Günay serves as a Lecturer in the Biomedical Device Technology Program under the Electronics and Automation Department at Hacilar Hüseyin Aytemiz Vocational School. Her academic role integrates teaching with research focused on advanced polymer applications for biomedical and environmental challenges.

Her research specializes in chemical modification of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers through grafting and coating techniques. Key interests include developing antimicrobial surfaces for medical devices, creating adsorbents for environmental remediation (heavy metals, dyes, ions), and engineering biocompatible materials. This work bridges polymer chemistry, materials science, and environmental engineering to address sustainability in healthcare and pollution control.

Analysis of her publication trends reveals consistent innovation in functionalizing PET fibers since 2018, with recent work (2023-2025) expanding into bio-based packaging and surgical sutures. Dominant themes involve graft copolymerization with monomers like glycidyl methacrylate and 4-vinyl pyridine, targeting specific applications in wastewater treatment and medical device technology through precise surface chemistry manipulation.
