Professor Mingqiu Zhang works in the School of Chemistry, Sun Yat-sen (Zhongshan) University, China. He has over forty-year systematic experience in polymers, polymer blends and polymer composites, with particular interests in their structure-property-processing relationships, characterization techniques, and applications as functional materials. Prof. Zhang has published 2 monographs, 18 book chapters, and more than 400 publications in refereed scientific journals and books on the general topics including mechanical properties of polymers and reinforced polymer composites, nanoparticles surface modification and nanoparticles/polymer composites, bio-composites from renewable resources, interfacial structure in composite materials, macromolecular physics, electrical conductive performance of polymer composites, friction and wear of polymers and composites, and self-healing polymeric materials. He also holds 67 patents. Prof. Zhang serves as a member of Asian-Australasian Association for Composite Materials (AACM) Council and the standing council of Chinese Society for Materials Science, and the president of Guangdong Society for Composites. He is on the editorial board of 9 scientific journals including Composites Science & Technology (Elsevier, Regional Editor), Acta Materiae Compositae Sinica (Chin. Soc. Compos., Editor), Polymer International (Wiley), Soft Materials (Taylor & Francis), Polymers & Polymer Composites (Smithers Rapra), Express Polymer Letters (BME), Journal of Functional Polymers (East Chin. Univ. Sci. Technol.), Journal of Functional Materials (Chongqing Mater. Res. Inst.), and Journal of Materials Science and Engineering (Zhejiang Univ.). In 1997, he received the prestigious Fellowship from the Natural Science Foundation of China for the Outstanding Young Scientists and in 2005, he was selected as a Cheung Kong Scholar by Li Ka Shing Foundation and the Ministry of Education of China.
