Prof. Emo Chiellini (1936-2020)

After graduating in Chemistry in 1963 at the University of Pisa in the research group of prof. Piero Pino (one of Giulio Natta’s main collaborators), carried out his academic career at the Department of Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry of the University of Pisa and in European and non-EU Universities such as the University of Liverpool (UK), Moscow State University (Russia), University of Massachusetts at Amherst (USA), University of Sao Paulo in Sao Paulo & Campinas (Brazil), University of Nagasaki (Japan) and University of Mogadishu (Somalia).

In 1980 he was appointed full professor of Chemical Foundations of Technologies at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Pisa, where he taught until 2010, teaching courses in General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Materials Science and Technology. The passion for fundamental and applied research to the resolution of industrial and environmental problems has led prof. Chiellini to develop innovative research in the field of biodegradable polymers and to study their technological applications in the creation of new materials to be used in the biomedical and environmental fields.

He was among the promoters of the foundation and during his long career he also held the role of Member of the Scientific Council of the INSTM Consortium. He founded and coordinated the BIOlab (Laboratory of Bioactive Polymeric Materials for Biomedical and Environmental Applications) Reference Center of INSTM, where researchers with expertise in materials science and technology, organic chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, pharmaceutical technologies, microbiology and environmental chemistry. He was the founder and president of LMPE S.r.l. SB., spin-off of the INSTM Consortium, responsible for numerous research contracts financed by industries from the European Community and the Tuscany Region.

He is the author of more than 500 publications, holder of 35 patents. He has presented more than 300 invited lectures in scientific institutions and industries. He is editor/co-editor of 20 books and has been a member of the Editorial Board of several international scientific journals in the field of polymers. Particularly noteworthy was his participation, from 1996 to 2008, in the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) group, engaged in the program relating to “Sustainable development in developing countries and countries in transition” mainly focused on polymeric materials and related environmentally friendly plastic products. Professor Chiellini has been awarded various awards throughout his career, including the Giulio Natta Prize for Chemistry in 2018.

Prof. Emo Chiellini (1936-2020)

Dopo la laurea in Chimica nel 1963 all’Università di Pisa nel gruppo di ricerca del prof. Piero Pino (uno dei principali collaboratori Giulio Natta), ha svolto la sua carriera accademica al dipartimento di Chimica e chimica industriale dell’Università di Pisa e in Università europee ed extracomunitarie quali University of Liverpool (UK), Moscow State University (Russia), University of Massachusetts ad Amherst (USA), University of Sao Paulo a San Paolo & Campinas (Brazil), University of Nagasaki (Japan) e University of Mogadiscio (Somalia).

Nel 1980 è stato nominato professore ordinario di Fondamenti chimici delle tecnologie alla facoltà di Ingegneria dell’Università di Pisa, dove ha insegnato fino al 2010 tenendo corsi di Insegnamento in Chimica generale, Chimica organica e Scienza e tecnologia dei materiali. La passione per la ricerca fondamentale e applicata alla risoluzione dei problemi industriali e ambientali, ha portato il prof. Chiellini a sviluppare ricerche innovative nel campo dei polimeri biodegradabili e a studiare le loro applicazioni tecnologiche nella creazione di nuovi materiali da impiegare in ambito biomedico e ambientale.

È stato tra i promotori della fondazione e durante la sua lunga carriera ha ricoperto anche il ruolo di membro del Consiglio scientifico del Consorzio INSTM. Ha fondato e coordinato il Centro di Riferimento INSTM BIOlab (Laboratorio di Materiali Polimerici Bioattivi per Applicazioni Biomediche ed Ambientali) presso il quale hanno operato ricercatori con competenze nella scienza e tecnologia dei materiali, chimica organica, ingegneria chimica, scienza dei materiali, tecnologie farmaceutiche, microbiologia e chimica ambientale. È stato fondatore e presidente di LMPE S.r.l. SB., spin-off del Consorzio INSTM, responsabile di numerosi contratti di ricerca finanziati da industrie dalla Comunità Europea e dalla Regione Toscana.

È autore di più di 500 pubblicazioni, titolare di 35 brevetti. Ha presentato più di 300 conferenze a invito in istituzioni scientifiche e industrie. È editore/co-editore di 20 libri ed è stato membro dell’Editorial Board di diverse riviste scientifiche internazionali nel campo dei polimeri. Particolarmente degna di nota è stata la sua partecipazione, dal 1996 al 2008, al gruppo dell’United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), impegnato nel programma relativo allo “Sviluppo sostenibile nei paesi in via di sviluppo e paesi in transizione” focalizzato principalmente su materiali polimerici e relativi manufatti plastici ecocompatibili. Il professor Chiellini è stato insignito di vari premi nel corso della sua carriera, tra cui il Premio Giulio Natta per la Chimica nel 2018.
