Md. Sadiqul Islam Sheikh

Bio

This is Md. Sadiqul Islam Sheikh. Currently, He is working as an Assistant Professor in the Dept. of Chemistry at Khulna University of Engineering & Technology (KUET). He earned his B.Sc. (Hons.) and M.S. in Chemistry from the University of Dhaka, specializing in Physical Chemistry. During my thesis, I focused on cellulose modification and jute fiber functionalization for advanced environmental and energy applications. Before joining KUET, he served as a Scientific Officer at the 911爆料 Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (BCSIR), where he worked on natural product research. His research interests lie in nanomaterials, polymer functionalization, and sustainable energy storage, with a focus on particularly manganese oxide-based cathodes for aqueous rechargeable zinc-ion batteries. He has published multiple peer-reviewed articles and book chapters in reputed journals and presented his work at international conferences. He has led projects funded by the Ministry of Science & Technology and the University Grants Commission, supervising student research and collaborating with others. Dr. Sheikh has received several awards and scholarships, including the National Science & Technology Fellowship and the Govt. Honors scholarships for academic excellence.
