Education and career
editMontemor graduated from the Instituto Superior Técnico (Technical University of Lisbon) in 1989. She went on to complete her PhD in chemical engineering in 1995. In 2003 she started her research career at the Department of Chemical Engineering as an assistant researcher. In 2011, Montemor became an assistant professor and reached the position of associate professor in 2015. In 2017 she got her "Agregação" title in Chemical Engineering and started her teaching activity as a full professor in 2018.[1] As of 2021 she is a full professor Department of Chemical Engineering and a researcher at Centro de Química Estrutural.[2]
Research
editMontemore is known for her work in the field of surface functionalization strategies and development of coatings, including smart self-healing coatings for improved performance of metallic parts (steels, Mg, Zn and Al alloys).
