Postdoctoral Fellow in Polymer Nanocomposites and Materials Science United Arab Emirates University in United Arab Emirates

A postdoctoral fellow position is available at United Arab Emirates University under the supervision of Distinguished Professor Mohammad Jawaid. The research focuses on polymer nanocomposites, with an emphasis on material preparation, fabrication, and characterization of composites and nanocomposites, particularly those based on biobased resins. Candidates with experience in MXenes, self-healing materials, and fire-retardant materials for aerospace applications are especially encouraged to apply. The project may involve scaling up research outputs towards prototype development, making it suitable for candidates interested in both fundamental and applied aspects of materials science.

Applicants should hold a PhD in Chemical Engineering, Polymer composites/Nanocomposites, or Materials Science, and must demonstrate expertise in both materials science and composites. The position offers an opportunity to work in a dynamic research environment at United Arab Emirates University, collaborating on innovative projects with potential real-world impact in aerospace and advanced materials.

Interested candidates who meet the eligibility criteria are invited to contact Prof. Mohammad Jawaid directly at [email protected]. Please include your CV and a summary of your relevant experience in your communication. For more information about Prof. Jawaid, visit his LinkedIn profile.

Key research areas: polymer nanocomposites, materials science, composites, biobased resins, MXenes, self-healing materials, fire-retardant materials, aerospace applications, chemical engineering.
