Plastic upcycling, metal-organic frameworks, green chemistry

Jason Y. C. Lim obtained his DPhil in Inorganic Chemistry from the University of Oxford, U.K, and subsequently pursued postdoctoral research at the same institute on organocatalytic ring-opening polymerization. Upon returning to Singapore, he took up a position at the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), A*STAR, and now leads the Sustainable Supramolecular Materials Group. His research interests centre around plastic upcycling and recycling, green catalysis, supramolecular hydrogels and applications of MOFs in sustainability. He is a Journal of Materials Chemistry A Emerging Investigator (2024) and a recipient of the prestigious National Research Foundation Fellowship (2023) for his work on sustainable plastics upcycling.
