As part of his magnificent M.Sc thesis at
@pcc-wur.bsky.social , Christoph shows how to harness viscoelasticity to control spontaneous self-emulsification of multicomponent droplets. More in the open access article: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Last few spots for this exciting summer school are still open!

Great opportunity! Come join us!

Great school at a fantastic location! A unique experience!

#PolymerScience #Sustainability #MaterialsInnovation (6/6)

Concepts like “pluripotent” materials promise recycling systems where mixed-use profiles can form new materials with tailored properties. These advancements must consider the entire lifecycle, from sustainable feedstocks to environmental degradation, ensuring ecological responsibility. (5/6)

Computational and machine learning tools are enabling breakthroughs in degradable polymers that can replace conventional materials without altering processing. (4/6)

Here are the conclusions of our first day of discussions:
polymer science is at a pivotal moment, where designing innovative materials by integrating synthesis, formulation, and processing is essential. (3/6)

Thanks again to my co-organizers Andrea Giuntoli, Antonia Statt, Marleen Kamperman, and Emanuela Zaccarelli, and to all our participants! (2/6)

Breaking Barriers in Polymer Materials Design

Last October we had a great time at the Lorentz Center in Leiden, discussing how to break barriers in polymer materials design! (1/6)
