Dr Chaoying Wan
PhD project: Green elastomeric nanocomposites for transportation vehicles
Supervisors: Dr Chaoying Wan
Start Date. BEFORE October 1st 2013 and available immediately
Project description:Â
A fully funded PhD studentship is available in Dr Wanâs group. The project aims to develop high performance and lightweight thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) with desired functionalities for low carbon vehicles. Novel nanoparticle based catalysts will be synthesized for reactive-compounding of polymer blends by using melt processing techniques. The phase transition, compatibilisation, reaction kinetics will be investigated. Polymer chemistry, physics and polymer processing technology will be involved. The student will receive training in polymer processing, characterisation and testing techniques. The project will be funded for 3.5 years. It will be conducted at Nanocomposites Centre at WMG, in collaboration with Prof D M Haddleton at the Department of Chemistry.
Requirements:
A 2.1 or equivalent and open to UK/EU students.
