SUMMARY:Tenure-track Junior Professor Chair : New materials and processes with low environmental impact
DESCRIPTION:Research project\nThe scientific project carried out by the Chair is at the intersection of the disciplinary fields of process and material sciences involving the use of supercritical fluids. It will allow the development of studies which will aim at : \n– Intensifying the adequacy between the process and the material by improving the process efficiency. It can be achieved by integrating several functions in a single operation and by reducing the consumption of inputs (monomers\, additives\, catalysts…). The idea is to optimize the physico-chemical properties and/or reactive systems by supercritical fluids as reagents or carrier fluids to provide new functions or as plasticizers to transform heat-sensitive materials such as biobased polymers. \n– Making the use of polymeric materials safer in order to increase their recycling towards currently unthinkable applications by achieving total clean-up/purification: offering ultra-pure virgin or recycled polymers\, \n– Continuously generating materials with properties that are different from those currently proposed: high-performance materials\, nano-cellular polymer foams or polymer blends with controlled morphologies. \nThe deployment of the scientific project relies on a base of existing projects currently composed of 3 PhD on recycling and 4 projects on the purification and development of cellular materials. As soon as he/she is recruited\, the person hired will be integrated into the follow-up of the projects. He/she will also supervise the doctoral and post-doctoral students recruited. They will be assigned to the development of the coupling of fluids under supercritical conditions and polymer processing and\, more particularly\, they will endeavour to associate conceptual aspects at different scales and states of matter with the experimental part (constitutive laws and scaling laws for complex polymer/supercritical fluids under strong flows\, fundamental mechanisms involved in the elaboration of nano-foams assisted by supercritical fluids\, understanding of the clean-up processes integrated in a recycling operation). \nThe overall budget allocated to the project amounts to 650000 € including salaries. \nContacts   Head of the lab : Pr Jean-Charles Majesté\, majeste@univ-st-etienne.fr \nHost laboratory:\nThe Laboratory « Ingénierie des Matériaux Polymères » (UMR CNRS 5223) is a research unit (70 senior scientists /130 Ph-D and postdocs) which focuses on polymer materials\, affiliated to CNRS\, University of Lyon\, INSA and to University Jean Monnet of Saint-Etienne). The laboratory has included in its roadmap the development of cross-disciplinary skills related to major societal challenges in both energy and environmental aspects\, including an approach to the development of materials with a virtuous life cycle. The person recruited at the Saint-Etienne site will be able to rely on the laboratory’s platform “FlusCritex” (unique in Europe) dedicated to the coupling of fluids under supercritical conditions and polymer processing. The development of this coupling approach requires the association of conceptual aspects at different scales and states of matter in addition to the experimental component. This conceptualization approach is an important research axis in the laboratory.

SUMMARY:Post doc position Unina-DPI
DESCRIPTION:We are currently looking for a motivated Postdoc to work on Long Chain Branching in Polyolefins within the framework of GoLBraPol\, a research project funded by the Dutch Polymer Institute (DPI).\nThis Project focuses on the relationship between molecular architecture\, rheological and processing properties of Sparsely Long Chain Branched Polyolefins (SLCB-PO). A multidisciplinary approach to determine the rheological fingerprint of the SLCB architecture will be set up to link the flow properties to molecular architecture. This will provide the knowledge to govern SLCB processing and tune the mechanical properties of the final product. Experiments will be devised to require very small\, milligram size amounts of polymer\, thus making it possible to use high throughput\, laboratory-oriented synthesis strategies. The results are expected to pave the way to the use of SLCB-POs in specific processing technologies. The possibility to predict and design the best SLCB-PO material for a specific application will also contribute to a better\, more responsible\, and sustainable use of polyolefins. \nThe duration of the fellowship is for one year and can be extended for one more year\, to be spent mainly at the University of Naples Federico II. We are looking for a highly motivated experimental researcher with a solid background in engineering\, physics\, chemistry\, or a related field\, preferably with knowledge of rheology and soft matter. Experience with experimental research\, especially using rheometry and processing techniques\, as well as excellent communication and computer skills will be highly beneficial. \nThe Postdoc position will be assigned based on a public competition. The starting of the activity is November 1st. \nThe call is available here:\nhttps://lnkd.in/dzymAfxu \nFor any info:\nNino Grizzuti (nino.grizzuti@unina.it)\nRossana Pasquino (rossana.pasquino@unina.it)\nSalvatore Costanzo (salvatore.costanzo@unina.it)
