Rajendra Kumar Goyal’s group is working on the development of nanomaterials, advanced polymer matrix composites and nanocomposites for the applications in electronics (printed circuit boards, microwave substrate, EMI/RF shielding, etc.), tribological and biomedical applications. The main focus is to develop cost effective high performance composites/nanocomposite materials as an alternative of the existing materials. He has provided several consultancies to government and private industries. He has published over 65 research papers in national and international peer-reviewed journals and presented several dozen of research papers in international and national conferences. He has successfully completed several research projects funded by funding agencies like ISRO, UGC, AICTE, India. He has supervised 6 PhD, 42 M.Tech. and more than 99 (or 43 groups) B.Tech. students. Currently, 6 PhD students are doing research work in different areas under his guidance.
