President of South China University of Technology

Liqun Zhang is the president of South China University of Technology and Xi'an Jiaotong University.

Education

Zhang obtained his BS (1990), MS (1992) and PhD (1995) degrees from Beijing University of Chemical Technology. He was a visiting scholar at the University of Akron from 1990 to 2000. He held a postdoctoral position at Case Western Reserve University from 2000 to 2001.

Career

Zhang has been a professor at the College of Materials Science and Engineering (CMSE) at BUCT since 1995, and College Dean since 2016.

He accepted a position as president of SCUT in 2021. During his tenure, the university has established partnerships with BASF, with NTU Singapore, with Mahidol University.

Zhang is a member of the editorial board of the scientific journal Nano-Structures and Nano-Objects.

His most cited work concerns the application of a Halloysite clay nanotube to achieve a delayed release of antioxidants in a rubber compound, thus achieving an enhancement to anti-ageing properties.
