Two MSCA PhD Positions in Advanced Polymers for Electric Vehicles at the University of Padua University of Padua in Italy

This 18-month postdoctoral project in circular polymer chemistry is based at the Institute of Chemistry and Molecular Sciences of Montpellier (ICGM), in collaboration with the French deep-tech start-up PETSHKA. The research will investigate sustainable routes for the chemical recycling and valorization of major polymers. The postdoctoral researcher will work on the catalytic depolymerization of polyurethanes and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) , examining how the structures of the resulting pro...

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 ...
