Primary career market
Public Sector, Education & Impact (employer-sector evidence). Are you pursuing your scientific career in polymer science, materials chemistry, or electrochemistry, and looking for the best possible platform to launch your research ambitions? This is your chance to join a newly established alliance PhD project between DTU Energy and Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to join an interdisciplinary research project at the interface of polymer chemistry and electrocatalysis. Complex electrocatalytic reactions that form new carbon-nitrogen (C-N) bonds offer a sustainable, fossil-free route to fertilizers and commodity chemicals, strengthening Europe's position in critical clean technologies.
How well these reactions proceed depends strongly on the interface between the catalyst and the electrolyte. The overarching aim of the project is to define and tune how the polymer microenvironment governs a multistep electrochemical reaction, and to translate this understanding into design principles for functional polymer surface enhancers for C-N coupling1 …
