PhD in Chemistry:Sustainable adipic acid synthesis, from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), using redox paired nanoparticles, supported by an artificial intelligence approach: EPSRC IDLA PhD
The aim of the Industrial Doctoral Landscape Award (IDLA) PhD studentship, jointly sponsored by EPSRC and bp, is to provide a sustainable approach for adipic acid production, using 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) a renewable biomass feedstock. Read more
Modelling the dynamics of surfactant-laden droplets for sustainable design of emulsions
Background. Emulsions, which consist of dispersed droplets of one liquid in another immiscible liquid, are critical components in a wide range of applications, from personal care products and pharmaceuticals to food, agrochemicals, and lubricants. Read more
Spray Delivery of Antifibrotic Polysaccharides
Project. Fibrotic conditions cause nearly half of all deaths in industrialised countries, and excessive scarring can cause significant disability and disfigurement. Read more
(UoM - IIT KGP) Tailoring Functional Mucoadhesive Polymer Gel in Oral Cancer Therapy; A Milder Approach
Despite significant advances in cancer therapeutics, improving the prognosis of late-stage oral cancer remains challenging. Read more
Last chance to apply
Developing information-rich two-dimensional materials as a versatile platform for information storage and processing (S3.5-MPS-Foster)
Nature demonstrates the potential of information-rich polymers such as DNA and proteins for interacting with other molecules in precise ways that enable them to store and process information, assemble complex structures and create highly selective sensors and active catalysts. Read more
Innovative Biopolymer Electrolytes with Enhanced Sodium-Ion Conductivity for Sustainable Battery Solutions (ReNU+24/EE/MCE/XING)
The EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Renewable Energy Northeast Universities Plus (ReNU+) is a collaborative doctoral training programme run by the Universities of Northumbria, Newcastle and Durham. Read more
(UoM - IIT KGP) Development of sustainable, graphene-enhanced bio-based elastomer composites
In this project, we will develop graphene-enhanced biobased polyurethane elastomers. The bio-PU will be formulated with bio-derived isocyanate from bio-mass sources and bio-derived polyols from vegetable oils, cellulose, starch, sugars, and lignin. Read more
PhD in Chemistry: Studies in heterogeneous catalysts
The Max Planck Centre for fundamental studies on heterogeneous catalyst was established in 2019 and has two themes operating on experimental heterogeneous catalysis; namely catalyst design and acetylene chemistry. Read more
PhD in Chemistry: Electron Microscopy of New Catalysts for Acetylene Chemistry
This PhD project will apply world-leading electron microscopy techniques to the study of new catalysts for acetylene-based chemistry. Read more
PhD in Chemistry: New catalysts for acetylene processes enabling a sustainable future
Chemical industry produces tens of thousands of chemical intermediates and products that are essential components of polymers, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, fragrances, paints, and more, elevating the overall quality and length of human life across the globe. Read more
Driving polymer mechanochemistry via processing techniques
Conventionally, chemical transformations are driven by inputs such as light, heat or electricity. However, the exciting field of polymer mechanochemistry is adding to these conventions by developing the use of mechanical force to drive chemical changes. Read more
3D-Printed High Voltage Insulating Materials for the Green Energy Transition
The move to a green economy requires a significant expansion of the existing electricity transmission networks. There is thus an increased demand for installing new transmission and distribution assets including cables, transformers and switchgear etc. Read more
Synthesis of Artificial blood
Inspired by Nature, we have developed a number of porphyrin containing biomimetic macromolecules. These have included a porphyrin cored polymer capable of reversibly binding oxygen. As such, these molecules have the potential to be applied as a plastic or artificial blood product. Read more
New macro-ligands for protein binding, and drug delivery
Proteins bind and recognise each other using large surface areas. This recognition process is vital for a variety of biological applications. Read more
