Polymer chemist focussed on the design of polymer materials with tunable properties exploiting the functionality of biobased building blocks. Experience in:
- polymer and organic synthesis
- coatings: inkjet inks (water based, solvent based and UV curable) and paints (powder coatings and alkyd coatings)
- high performance fibers
- engineering plastics
- stimuli responsive copolymers
- analytical techniques
- structure-property relationships
- biobased materials
- (bio)informatics and artificial intelligence
