He has supervised 35 Doctoral Theses and 60 Master theses in science and didactics. He is a reviewer at several national and international journals. He is the author of a 3 books. His main research interests are in the field of Physical Chemistry, Especially electrochemistry (Corrosion and its inhibition in several media for metals and alloys using various techniques). He is also interested for electroless plating of Ni-P, Ni-Cu-P, Cu-P, Ni-Pd-Cu… and their components in several corrosive medium. He is currently interested in using some quantum chemical methods like density functional theory (DFT) and other semi-empirical methods to study corrosion inhibition efficiencies of organic compounds. He is also interested in the Didactics of physics and chemistry. Read More Read Less
