PhD in Mechanochromic Paper Materials and Polymer Chemistry at University of Freiburg University of Freiburg in Germany

The Calvino Group at the University of Freiburg is recruiting a PhD student for a new DFG-funded project, PHOTOMELT. The project explores reversible photopolymerization directly in polymer melts, at the interface of polymer chemistry, photochemistry, and materials science. This is a strong fit for candidates interested in stimuli-responsive polymers, sustainable polymer materials, and reversible/orthogonal chemical systems. The post is for a PhD opening only. The announcement does not list detai...
