Atul Tiwari received his Ph D in Polymer Science from the
Macromolecular Research Centre, R.D. University, Jabalpur, India,
and his second master degree in mechanical engineering from the
University of Hawaii at Manoa, USA. In 2004, Dr. Tiwari was invited
as a postdoctoral fellow by the Department of Mechanical
Engineering, University of Hawaii at Manoa, where he developed five
technologies that were later patented by the university and
transferred to companies. He currently works as a Research Faculty
Member in the College of Engineering at the university. He has been
actively engaged as a consultant to companies working in various
fields of polymer science, engineering, and technology. As an
academician, Dr. Tiwari has published more than 60 peer-reviewed
research articles related to material science and has co-authored
and edited 10 books. He has been bestowed with Chartered Chemist
and Chartered Scientist status from the Royal Society of Chemistry,
UK, and is a member of several other professional bodies in the UK,
USA, and India.

Mark D. Soucek is a Professor in the Department of
Polymer Engineering, University of Akron. In 2003, Dr. Soucek was
selected as a Gordon Award Finalist for his work in UV-Curable
Bio-based polymers. In 2004, Dr. Soucek was awarded the Radtech
Innovation Award for his work in UV-curable coatings. In 2004 and
2005, he received an honorable mention for the Gordon Award for
Core-Shell latex work, and UV-curing of Unsaturated Polyesters. In
2009, Professor Soucek won his second Roon Award for a developing a
new class of alkyd coatings. He presently has more than 100
research papers published all in coating science.
