Internship | Thermoplastic composites for Lightweight Functional and Sustainable Components
2 weken geleden
About this position
Thermoplastic composites (TPC) are a family of fiber reinforced polymeric composites that are easy to process, easy to shape, and recyclable. These characteristics make them very interesting for many industrial applications. For example in the transport sector, TPCs are becoming more important since upcoming environmental legislation will force vehicle manufacturers to incorporate a high percentage of recyclable materials in their products. Other sectors, such as the aviation industry, also require lightweight TPCs to help mitigate the carbon footprint of their processes and operation. The Sustainable Mobility research group at TNO is developing new TPCs technologies, and within this scope welcomes students who are interested to work on the following topics: 1. Hybrid TPCs - interface technology of thermoplastic composites; 2. Recycling via recipe and processing optimization of thermoplastic composites; 3. Additive manufacturing (3D printing) of thermoplastic composites; 4. Mechanical testing of thermoplastic composites.
What will be your role?
You will work in our research center and will participate in the activities of the Sustainable Mobility team. Depending on your interest, field of study, and background, your tasks can comprise of materials processing, design, testing, and characterization.
What we expect from you
We are looking for students (BSc or MSc) with a background in the fields of mechanical engineering, material science, polymer chemistry and/or similar that have a hands-on mentality. Previous experience with working in a laboratory environment and affinity to polymer chemistry and material science are a plus. Experience using thermal analysis equipment (DSC, TGA, etc.) and mechanical characterization (DMTA, tensile) would be appreciated. Finally, good communication skills in written and spoken English are expected. The internship period should last at least 5 months.
BMC is a Joint Innovation Center of TNO and the Province of Limburg. The internship is organized within TNO, which is an independent research organisation whose expertise and research make an important contribution to the competitiveness of companies and organisations, to the economy and to the quality of society as a whole.
