Research interests
My research activity is focused on the assessment of detailed kinetic mechanisms of pyrolysis and combustion processes in gas phase and in condensed phase by means of electronic structure calculations. In particular, my research interests concern the thermal degradation of plastics and soot nucleation and growth from a gaseous source.
