Majid Montazer is a prominent expert in textile engineering, particularly recognized for his innovative research in nanofinishing techniques. He serves as a full professor at Amirkabir University of Technology in Iran, where he has made significant contributions to the advancement of antibacterial, self-cleaning, conductive, technical, and multifunctional textiles. He has authored more than 400 scientific publications and several chapter books, earning a place among the top 2% of scientists worldwide. Dr. Tina Harifi is a researcher and lab instructor at Textile Department of Amirkabir University of Technology, where she is part of the Functional Fibrous Structures & Environmental Enhancement (FFSEE) research group. She was born in 1984 and received her BS, MS and PhD degrees in Textile Chemistry and Fiber Science from the Textile Engineering Department of Amirkabir University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, in 2007, 2009 and 2014, respectively. Her PhD thesis, under the supervision of Prof. Majid Montazer, concerned the synthesis and stabilization of TiO2:Ag:Fe for multi-functional finishing of polyester fabric and was selected as one of the best researches from Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic). She has coauthored 28 papers during the last six years and is now a researcher in Nano-Bio Finishing Laboratory of the Textile Engineering Department of Amirkabir University of Technology. In 2017, she received a DFG (German Research Foundation) grant as a visiting scientist for a three-month research stay in Institut für Technische Chemie, Leibniz University, Hannover, Germany. Recently, she has been awarded for co-participation in a challenge proposed by Inocrowd (Innovation-based R&D management systems), Portugal. Her current research interests mainly include synthesis and deposition of nanoparticles on textile substrates for environmental remediation and energy production.
