ABOUT THE EDITORS
Lionello Pogliani, PhD
Professor of Physical Chemistry (retired),
University of Valencia-Burjassot, Spain
Lionello Pogliani, PhD, is a retired Professor of Physical Chemistry. He
has contributed more than 200 papers in the experimental, theoretical, and
didactical fields of physical chemistry, including chapters in specialized
books and a book on numbers 0, 1, 2, and 3. A work of his has been awarded
with the GM Neural Trauma Research Award. He is a member of the Interna-
tional Academy of Mathematical Chemistry, and he is on the editorial boards
of many international journals. He is presently a part-time teammate at the
Physical Chemistry Department of the University of Valencia, Spain. He
received his postdoctoral training at the Department of Molecular Biology
of the C.E.A. (Centre d’Etudes Atomiques) of Saclay, France, at the Physical
Chemistry Institute of the Technical and Free University of Berlin, and at the
Pharmaceutical Department of the University of California, San Francisco,
USA. He spent his sabbatical years at the Technical University of Lisbon,
Portugal, and at the University of Valencia, Spain.
Suresh C. Ameta, PhD
Dean, Faculty of Science, PAHER University, Udaipur, India
Suresh C. Ameta, PhD, is currently Dean, Faculty of Science at PAHER
University, Udaipur, India. He has served as Professor and Head of the
Department of Chemistry at North Gujarat University Patan and at M. L.
Sukhadia University, Udaipur, and as Head of the Department of Polymer
Science. He also served as Dean of Postgraduate Studies. Prof. Ameta has
held the position of President of the Indian Chemical Society, Kotkata, and
is now a life-long Vice President. He was awarded a number of prestigious
awards during his career, such as national prizes twice for writing chemistry
books in Hindi. He also received the Prof. M. N. Desai Award (2004), the
Prof. W. U. Malik Award (2008), the National Teacher Award (2011), the
Prof. G. V. Bakore Award (2007), a Life-Time Achievement Award by the
Indian Chemical Society (2011) as well as the Indian Council of Chemist
vi About the Editors
(2015), etc. He has successfully guided 81 PhD students. Having more than
350 research publications to his credit in journals of national and international
repute, he is also the author of many undergraduate- and postgraduate-level
books. He has published three books with Apple Academic Press: Chemical
Applications of Symmetry and Group Theory; Microwave-Assisted Organic
Synthesis; and Green Chemistry: Fundamentals and Applications; and two
with Taylor and Francis: Solar Energy Conversion and Storage and Photo-
catalysis. He has also written chapters in books published by several other
international publishers. Prof. Ameta has delivered lectures and chaired
sessions at national conferences and is a reviewer of number of interna-
tional journals. In addition, he has completed five major research projects
from different funding agencies, such as DST, UGC, CSIR, and Ministry of
Energy, Govt. of India.
A.K. Haghi, PhD

International Journal of Chemoinformatics and Chemical Engineering
& Polymers Research Journal; Member, Canadian Research and
Development Center of Sciences and Cultures
A. K. Haghi, PhD, is the author and editor of 165 books, as well as 1000
published papers in various journals and conference proceedings. Dr. Haghi
has received several grants, consulted for a number of major corporations,
and is a frequent speaker to national and international audiences. Since
1983, he served as professor at several universities. He is the former Editor-
in-Chief of the International Journal of Chemoinformatics and Chemical
Engineering and Polymers Research Journal and is on the editorial boards of
many international journals. He is also a member of the Canadian Research
and Development Center of Sciences and Cultures (CRDCSC), Montreal,
Quebec, Canada.
INNOVATIONS IN PHYSICAL
CHEMISTRY: MONOGRAPH SERIES
This book series offers a comprehensive collection of books on physical prin-
ciples and mathematical techniques for majors, non-majors, and chemical
engineers. Because there are many exciting new areas of research involving
computational chemistry, nanomaterials, smart materials, high-performance
materials, and applications of the recently discovered graphene, there can be
no doubt that physical chemistry is a vitally important field. Physical chem-
istry is considered a daunting branch of chemistry—it is grounded in physics
and mathematics and draws on quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and
statistical thermodynamics.
