Poszukiwan-y/a stypendyst(k)a w projekcie SONATA 17 NCN

Oferta stypendialna na stanowisko doktoranta w projekcie NCN pt. " Materiały kompozytowe na bazie hydrożelu przewodzącego jako elastyczne systemy do konwersji i magazynowania energii" / PhD student-scholarship position in NCN project titled " Conductive hydrogel-based composite materials for flexible energy conversion and storage devices"

Requirements:

Education: higher (MSc, MSc. Eng.) in a field of biomedical engineering, materials engineering, chemistry, electronics, or other related.

Professional experience: participation in a scientific project, a scientific conference for students, co-author in conference/journal publications are appreciated.

The minimum required scope of knowledge and experience: basic knowledge in materials engineering (polymers, conducting polymers, catalytic particles) and electrochemistry (performing basic measurements), basic analysis of the material's structure and morphology; English language skills at an advanced level.

Tasks:

- optimization of the process of uniform dispersion of the catalyst particles to eliminate the formation of aggregates in the hydrogel structure,

- synthesis of conductive hydrogels based on PNIPAAm and conductive particles and/or conductive polymer as conductive fillers,

- conducting experiments with the analysis and development of test results of hydrogel materials in terms of oxygen evolution reaction (OER), electrical conductivity, morphological and physicochemical properties (SEM, EDS, FTIR),

- preparation of scientific manuscripts for publication,

- presentation of the results at the conferences.

Type of NCN competition: Sonata

Deadline for applications:29.09.2023

Conditions of employment: scholarship 3000 PLN/month + successful recruitment to the doctoral school at GUT (https://pg.edu.pl/en/doctoral-school); period of contract/stipend agreement - 24 months.
