David RUCH

Dr. Ruch got his Ph.D. diploma in France in 2002. Since 2005, he had the opportunity to lead groups mainly active on developing innovative  functional materials especially in the field of polymers and polymer-based composites and since 2015, he is leading a research group within Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology fully dedicated to surface and interface engineering. He published about 200 technical papers and had the opportunity to give more than 30 oral presentations. His fields of interest spans from interface and surface engineering, as well as advanced characterisation of materials properties up to (nano)composites processing. He is actively involved in several projects with the aim of developing multifunctional polymer composites to address specific applications.
