Biography
Project Technical Assistant | Center for Engineered Coatings (CEC), ARCI
A Diploma in Metallurgical Engineering professional specializing in advanced surface engineering. Currently contributing to cutting-edge research in radial plasma spray systems under the guidance of Dr. G. Sivakumar (Scientist-G) at ARCI. I focus on developing high-performance coatings for Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs) and specialized biomedical applications.
In addition, also helped in develoement and expertise in powder production and processing, including materials such as LCt powders and YAG (Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) powders, which are critical for advanced coating and high-performance applications. And also involved in the preparation and development of solar salt materials for thermal energy storage devices, contributing to sustainable energy solutions.
Also Secured a State-level 3rd Prize in a Technical Fest for the work on customized biomedical implants, for different patient applications.
