Biography
Dr. Rusnah Syahila Binti Duali Hussen working in Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA. Total Articles in Publication List are 17. Rusnah S. D. Hussen, PhD: Studied Applied Chemistry at the University of Malaya and obtained MSc and PhD in Material Science and Nanotechnology. The scientific work covers the preparation of renewable resource derived surfactants and their molecular self-assembly related to emulsion and life science applications. Besides physical investigations of self-assembling materials, the research is emphasizing on the development of surfactant formulations for specific applications, e.g. water-oil emulsions and vesicles for medical applications. The research also includes metallomesogens for molecular switch applications related to liquid crystalline behaviour. Investigations cover spectroscopy, physical measurements at the nanoscale, optical polarising microscopy and systematic surface studies.
