  • Elucidation of structure-property relationships
  • Chemical depolymerization and separation of building blocks
  • Proof of concept for closed-loop recycling
Requirements
  • MSc degree in polymer chemistry, organic chemistry, or a related discipline
  • Experience with the synthesis and characterization of polymers or organic molecules
  • Analytical skills, initiative, and creativity
  • Ability to work in an interdisciplinary team and collaborate with industrial partners
  • Fluent in spoken and written English (C1 level)
What We Offer
  • Full-time employment for four years
  • Salary and benefits in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities
