ABOUT US

SPP is an IIT Kharagpur-based research lab group in the Materials Science Centre lead by Dr. Shibayan Roy since 2016. The group tries to correlate the mechanical behavior with the microstructures in the different systems (Metal-based alloys, Composites, and Glass-ceramics). The main purpose of the SPP group is to interrelate and find the link between the three main stems, i.e., Structure, Property, and Processing in various systems.

The lab group is very diverse and has no barriers in terms of background. It includes Physicists, Metallurgists, Ceramists, Nano-technologists, and Mechanical people and is open to many more such minds who are very passionate and enthusiasts for research and can dive in and explore the limitless extremities.
