Head of Department: Prof. R.K. Soni (21.02.2021-20.02.2024)

The department of chemistry was established in the year 2002 with the introduction of a new course of M.Sc. (Polymer Science & Chemical Technology). This course is very important for both industrial and research institutions. The department has started research activities in the fields of Polymer Science & Chemical Technology such as Development of technology for recovering chemicals and useful products from polymer waste, Biodegradable plastics, Conducting polymers, Composites etc. The department is starting a new regular course of M.Sc. in Chemistry from the present academic session i.e. 2003-2004 and is planning to introduce another S.F.S. Master of Engineering course in Polymer Technology from the next academic session in 2004-2005. The department is making efforts to establish very advanced research laboratories and it has been proposed to equip the laboratories with most sophisticated analytical instruments such as Spectrophotometers, Thermal Analyzers, H.P.L.C. etc.
