Fully Funded PhD in Green Polymers from Plant Oils BOKU University in Austria

PhD opportunity in green polymers from plant oils at BOKU University in the Vienna region, Austria. The position is hosted by the Institute of Chemistry of Renewable Resources and is part of an Austrian Science Fund (FWF)-funded project focused on how the molecular structure of plant-oil-based materials determines their properties. The research is well suited to candidates interested in green chemistry , polymer science , materials science , and sustainable materials development. The project inv...

PhD position available at BOKU University in Tulln, Austria (near Vienna) on green polymers from plant oils . The project, From Mixtures to Models: Plant-Oil Polymer Networks , is FWF-funded and aims to understand how the molecular structure of plant oils influences the properties of the resulting polymers. The research will involve synthesizing well-defined building blocks from plant oils, converting them into polymer networks, and characterizing their properties. This opportunity is well suite...
