learns new knowledge, understands the needs of companies, and enthusiastically embraces challenges, finding satisfaction in solving problems. These experiences have given him a deep understanding of how interactions between academic and industry experts not only help set research goals but also accelerate the development and practical application of technologies.Over the years, Professor Lin has been dedicated to supporting Taiwan%u2019s industries, advancing Taiwan%u2019s leadership in international green chemistry, materials science, and sustainable development. His contributions have significantly enhanced the competitiveness and sustainability of Taiwanese companies in the global market.Technical ContributionsProfessor Lin, currently a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at National Chung Hsing University (NCHU), has made outstanding contributions in the fields of green, halogen-free printed circuit board substrates, lowdielectric materials for 5G high-frequency communication, and recyclable and degradable wind turbine blades. Since joining NCHU in 2002, Professor Lin has successfully led 21 industryacademia collaboration projects, completed 22 technology transfers, and executed 23 projects for the National Science and Technology Council and 12 projects for the National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology. He has published over 120 SCI papers and holds more than 150 domestic and international patents, with total licensing revenues exceeding 50 million NTD. He is recognized among the top 2% of scientists globally.In the field of degradable and recyclable wind turbine blades, Professor Lin has successfully developed and massproduced degradable epoxy resins and has manufactured several 91-meter and 105-meter recyclable wind turbine blades. His accomplishments in plastic upcycling are remarkable, including the full-atom recovery of waste polycarbonate to prepare epoxy resin cured products and the innovative non-catalytic degradation of these cured products. Additionally, Professor Lin has upgraded waste polycarbonate into vitrimer, a glass-like polymer material with high hydrolysis resistance and superior thermal properties, demonstrating his significant impact on the circular economy for plastics.116 117
