Biography
Anniver Ryan P Lapuz is a Materials Science and Chemical Engineer. His topic of interest is to explore the potential of nanocellulose from locally abundant agro-lignocellulosic materials. His researches on green composites such as fiber reinforced thermoplastic starch as substitute for single use packaging would further be enhanced using nanotechnology to improve its mechanical and physical properties. His current studies include reinforced thermoplastic starch (TPS) used for thin film and expanded TPS applications.
