Postdoctoral Researcher in Cellulose Fiber Development
2 days ago
This postdoctoral research position is focused on developing sustainable cellulose fiber production methods. The successful candidate will work closely with our team at Karlstad University and the Mission 0 House in Gothenburg to develop new biobased polymer production methods.
The research will involve experimental investigations into cellulose dissolution and regeneration, as well as the application of computational chemistry to model and refine experimental designs. The goal is to reduce the amount of chemicals used in traditional processes and identify new, sustainable alternatives.
Key Challenges:
- Developing new cellulose dissolution and regeneration methods
- Applying computational chemistry to model and refine experimental designs
- Reducing the amount of chemicals used in traditional processes
- Identifying new, sustainable alternatives for cellulose fiber production
To be eligible for this position, you should have a PhD in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or Materials Science with a solid content of chemistry. You should also have experience in experimental methodologies, particularly in polymer or cellulose processing techniques, strong analytical skills, and a demonstrated interest in computational chemistry.
Prior experience in both experimental methods and computational chemistry will be highly valued. You should also be able to teach Applied Chemistry and have the ability to work in interdisciplinary teams as well as independently.
Assessment Criteria:
- Experience in experimental techniques, particularly in polymer or cellulose processing
- Scientific publications relevant to the research area
- Graduate level courses in the chemistry of polymers and chemical thermodynamics
- Experience in computational chemistry, molecular modeling, or simulations
