معرفی
Lennart Bergström is a Professor of Materials Chemistry at Stockholm University since 2004. He leads the Lennart Bergström group, focusing on sustainable materials, thermal insulation foams, and nanoparticle self-assembly. His research integrates materials science, colloid chemistry, and X-ray/neutron scattering techniques. He serves on the Swedish Research Council’s Scientific Council for Natural and Engineering Sciences, and as deputy director of MISTRA SafeChem.
His work emphasizes developing eco-friendly materials from waste and biomass, including thermally insulating foams and upcycled textiles. He has published over 250 papers, achieving an H-index of 73. Awards include the Humboldt Research Prize (2012) and Staudinger-Dürrer Medal (2025). He has mentored 14 professors and 60+ PhD/postdoc alumni globally.
Key research areas include moisture-dependent thermal conductivity, colloidal processing of nanomaterials, and magnetic nanoparticle assembly. Recent articles highlight advancements in nanocellulose-based foams, neutron tomography of biomaterials, and fire-retardant composites.
Awards and honors include Fellowships from the European and American Ceramic Societies, and the Royal Society of Chemistry. His lab collaborates on projects like Cellutech/StoraEnso and SwedNESS. He chairs the Sustainable Chemistry MSc program at Stockholm University.
