About

PhD in material chemistry

Master’s degree in Material Science, physical-chemistry of Polymers

My main activities involve investigating the thermal, mechanical and transport properties (e.g. permeability, diffusivity, solubility and selectivity) of materials using various diffusing molecules (e.g. gases and water), as well as characterising morphology and structure. A modelling approach is used to analyse barrier properties.

For

- polymer-based (nano)composites, multifunctional materials, multi-layered structures;

- Biosourced and/or biodegradable polymers

- Cellulosic materials, biomass, fibres and by-products

The aim is to improve the description of materials' barrier properties and evaluate their functional properties in order to highlight the relationships between structure, morphology and properties.
