🎓 Educational Background

Dr. Murugan Arunachalapandi holds a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Chemistry from the Vellore Institute of Technology, Vellore, completed in 2023. His research focused on visible light-induced copper titanate photocatalysis for multicomponent reactions. Prior to this, he earned an M.Phil. in Chemistry from Madurai Kamaraj University in 2017, graduating with 84% marks. He also completed his M.Sc. in Chemistry from the same university in 2016, securing 69%, and his B.Sc. in Chemistry in 2014, with 67%, laying a strong academic foundation in chemical sciences.

🔬 Research Experience

Dr. Arunachalapandi has gained hands-on research experience through several academic projects. During his M.Sc., he completed a group project on the “Synthesis and Characterization of Zirconium Oxide Nanoparticles” under the guidance of Dr. N. Karuthapandian at Virudhunagar Hindu Nadars’ Senthikumara Nadar College. His M.Phil. work involved developing a “Heteropoly acid supported Montmorillonite K-10 nanocomposite for the synthesis of quinoxalines”, mentored by Dr. P. Sami. His doctoral research, conducted under Dr. S. Mohana Roopan at VIT, focused on visible-light photocatalysis using copper titanate to facilitate green synthetic pathways for multicomponent reactions—an emerging and impactful area of study.

🏆 Achievements

Dr. Arunachalapandi was recognized for his scientific contribution at the National Conference on Frontiers in Ecobiological Sciences and its Applications (FESA-2018) held at Periyar University, Salem. He received the Best Poster Presentation Award for his work titled “Synthesis of quinoxalines using HPW₁₂O₄₀ supported on MK-10 nanocomposite as catalyst”, reflecting the originality and significance of his research.

đŸ§Ș Technical Skills

Dr. Arunachalapandi is proficient in operating a wide range of advanced analytical instruments, including FT-IR, UV-DRS, XRD, FE-SEM, Photoluminescence, Zeta Potential Analyzer, Microwave Reactor, and handling GC-MS, HR-MS, and HPLC systems. These skills have enabled him to perform comprehensive material characterization and reaction monitoring with precision.

đŸ’» Software Proficiency

He is well-versed in several chemistry-related software tools essential for data analysis and research documentation. These include Topspin (for ÂčH and ÂčÂłC NMR analysis), ChemDraw for structure drawing, Origin for interpreting spectral and analytical data, and ImageJ for imaging analysis. Additionally, he is skilled in X-pert High Score and Vesta for crystallographic studies, as well as QuillBot and AI tools for academic writing enhancement.
