Polymer Chemistry (environmental engineering) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 20 Polymer Chemistry (environmental engineering) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Green methods to revalorise wastes: transformation into sustainable materials and chemicals

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Fully Funded PhD opportunities in Chemical Sciences

Chemical Sciences are included in Doctoral School at Gdańsk University of Technology, Poland, which is regarded to be the first research university in Poland among universities of technology according to domestic rankings. Read more

Investigation into the Impact of Material Properties on the Gas Transport Behaviour of Polyolefin Materials

The sustainable use of polymeric materials is underpinned by ensuring long service life in all industries and applications. Understanding durability requires research into the effects of both manufacturing methods and environmental storage conditions on the material properties and performance over time. Read more

Natural Polymer Textiles & Fibres for Sustainable Fashion Sector PhD

This project aims to manufacture sustainable textiles from renewable/natural polymers such as cellulose, chitin, alginate, chitosan which derived from most abundant natural resources like agricultural biomass and sea food waste (crab shell, shrimp shells etc.). Read more

Sustainable processes – reducing single use plastics in healthcare

The burden of medical plastic waste has become an increasingly pressing concern in recent years. The healthcare industry relies heavily on single-use plastic items due to their convenience and hygiene factors, but this has led to a significant environmental problem. Read more

Fully Funded PhD Scholarship in Exploiting Coccolith Scaffolds for Engineered Micro-devices

Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates for a full-time funded PhD scholarship starting in September 2024 affiliated to the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences, College of Science and Engineering at the University of Galway. Read more

Atomic-Scale Regulation on photocatalysts for Solar plastic upcycling

About the project. The aim is to produce new fundamental science for sustainable production of hydrogen and value-added chemicals through a solar-driven photocatalytic approach using abundant plastic wastes and high-performance photocatalysts. Read more

Investigating Nanoscale Network Polymer Degradation

  Research Group: Polymers and Composites
Network polymers are widely deployed as the matrix in structural composites and high-performance pigmented protective coatings. Surprisingly however, many fundamental aspects of how the properties and structure of these materials degrade upon exposure to the environment remains unknown. Read more

Degradable and resorbable polymeric cryoprotectants

Extremophiles have evolved to survive in the world’s coldest environments, through the production of specialised macromolecules, such as antifreeze proteins and ‘ice nucleating proteins. Read more

Deploying safer robot chemists in real laboratory environments

Robotic chemists [1] are a totally new and disruptive development in human-centric labs, and these systems are already beginning to carry out complex experiments that require skills beyond sample transportation (e.g., sample weighing [2] and scraping samples from vials [3]. Read more
