Personal Profile

Lim Khak Ho1987-Malaysian Chinese。

In 2011, he received his bachelor's degree from the Department of Chemical Engineering and Polymer, School of Chemical Engineering, University of Technology Malaysia.

In 2019, he graduated from the Department of Chemical and biomolecular Engineering of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) with a PhD degree. In 2017, he went to the Catalonia Institute of Energy Research (IREC) in Spain to study under the tutelage of Professor Andreu Cabot, focusing on liquid phase colloid synthesis and ion ligand. Design, modify and prepare advanced structural nanomaterials, collaborate with structure and energy band design, develop thermoelectric performance enhancement technology, break the bottleneck of key device research and development, belongs to the European independent, the world's scientific and technological frontier.

With many years of product design, pilot production and business development and other aspects of rich experience. After graduation,  he engaged in biodegradable polymer research and product development. As the project leader, he led the R&D team to build the material production line in Hong Kong, China. As one of the top management of the company, he has made presentations at company promotions, road shows, key investors and clients, won the Alibaba Enterprise Funds, established and managed a number of research projects funded by the Hong Kong Government, China; As the technical backbone of the company, on behalf of the company's external technical exchange, close cooperation with the world's top universities such as Imperial College London, City University of Hong Kong, the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the University of Vienna.

At the end of 2020, he joined Quzhou Research Institute of Zhejiang University full-time as a special researcher, devoted to the research of biodegradable materials, thermoelectric nanomaterials, flexible thermoelectric device development, free radical polymerization, polymerization reaction kinetics and other research.
