PhD in Light-Driven Synthesis and Recycling of Bio-Based Polymers Eindhoven University of Technology in Netherlands

The Center for the Transformation of Chemistry (CTC) in Leipzig is a newly founded national research hub in Germany focused on rethinking chemistry for global sustainability challenges. The PhD project sits in the Sofiadis group and is part of a collaborative, mission-driven research environment that brings together chemistry, physics, engineering, data science, and social sciences. This doctorate will focus on the development of sustainable organic photocatalysts for facilitating organic reacti...

Two postdoctoral positions are available in the research group of Aurelio Mateo-Alonso at POLYMAT, University of the Basque Country. The post is brief and does not include detailed project descriptions, funding terms, eligibility criteria, or an application deadline. The research context appears to be in chemistry, with a strong materials/polymer science angle, and the group’s interests include ⌬ derivatives. This is a postdoctoral opportunity rather than a PhD or master’s call. Interested candi...

Eindhoven University of Technology is recruiting a PhD candidate for a project on the synthesis of sustainable, PFAS-free polymers for high-performance applications . The research addresses the need for fluorine-free alternatives to fluorinated polymers and PFAS in demanding uses such as sealing systems, automotive and aerospace components, chemical-processing equipment, and other high-durability applications. The project will involve designing and synthesizing novel fluorine-free thermoplastic ...
