SUMMARY:PhD  position F/M in materials chemistry/polymer science: mineral-organic composites for enhanced ion transport
DESCRIPTION:Ionic conductivity is a key property for emerging energy technologies like fuel cells and batteries.\nIn a joint project between the ‘Laboratoire Charles Coulomb’ (L2C) and the ‘Institut Charles\nGerhardt de Montpellier’ (ICGM)\, we will explore how ionic transport processes in poly(ionic\nliquids) (PILs) can be simultaneously enhanced by incorporating ionic liquids (IL) while controlling\nmechanical strength (and contributing to conductivity) through embedding of a second solid\,\nionically conducting network of ionosilica. For this purpose\, we will investigate the chemical and\nphysical properties of various ionic materials (ionic liquids\, ionosilicas\, poly(ionic liquids)) and\nnanostructured composites.\nThe synthesis of the ionic phases will be carried out at ICGM\, and the ion conducting properties\nwill be studied at L2C. Both project partners have strong scientific background in their respective\nfields: L2C (A.C. Genix\, J. Oberdisse) have deep expertise in structural and dynamical studies at\nthe nanoscale in complex polymer systems and nanocomposites. ICGM (P. Hesemann\, J. Alauzun\,\nS. Clément\, S. Devautour) is specialized in the synthesis of (nano)materials and PILs as well as\nelectrical measurements to characterize ionic dynamics of porous solids. As both consortium\npartners are localized in Montpellier\, the project will benefit from intense and regular scientific\nexchange.\nAs a part of this project\, the candidate will be in charge of the synthesis and characterization of\nthe ionic silica fillers\, poly(ionic liquids) as well as nanocomposite formulation. She/He should\nhave a strong background in materials or polymer chemistry\, as well as spectroscopic\ncharacterization methods. Good communication skills\, notably in English (oral and written)\, are\nmandatory.\nApplication deadline: November 15\, 2020\nStarting date: January 1st\, 2021\nContact: Dr. Peter Hesemann\nInstitut Charles Gerhardt\, équipe CMOS\nPlace E. Bataillon\n34090 Montpellier\npeter.hesemann@umontpellier.fr

SUMMARY:Postdoc position in experimental soft matter physics @ Laboratoire Charles Coulomb\, Montpellier
DESCRIPTION:We are seeking for a highly motivated postdoc to join the Soft Matter team at Laboratoire Charles Coulomb\, Montpellier (France). Ideally\, the start date would be February 2021. The project is funded through the French National Research Agency grant  “THELECTRA” (Thermoresponsive electroadsorption). \nThe postdoc will investigate how the electrostatic adsorption of charged polyelectrolytes (PEs) affects the stability\, the rheology\, and the dynamics at the microscopic scale of suspensions of thermoresponsive ionic microgels with a charge opposite in sign to that of the PEs. She / he will explore the state diagram of PEs-microgel complexes in terms of rheology as a function of different parameters\, such as temperature\, concentration of PEs and microgels or their deformability. She / he will use a set of complementary experimental techniques\, which include an original set-up coupling light scattering and rheological measurements\, to determine the microscopic dynamics of PE-microgel complexes formed at high concentrations\, both at rest and under large shear strains. A quantitative comparison between the microscopic dynamics and the macroscopic mechanical properties of PE-microgel suspensions will be performed to reveal the origin of phenomena such as yielding\, aging and possibly thixotropy.\nSuch a fundamental understanding will be used to obtain a proof of concept for the design of a gray water treatment cell. This cell will use ionic microgels to physically adsorb a large class of ionic waste\, removing them from the water to be purified. \nThe position is for 24 months. For further details\, and to apply online\, please visit https://emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/UMR5221-DOMTRU-001/Default.aspx?lang=EN. \nInterested individuals can also contact me via email (domenico.truzzolillo@umontpellier.fr) or via my website (https://domenicotruzzolillo.jimdofree.com/contacts/) \nThe closing date for the application is december 1st. \nPlease feel free to disseminate to anybody that might be interested. \nDomenico Truzzolillo
