Résumé du poste

Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) invites applications for a two-year research position in the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering, within the COMPOCYCLE consortium. The goal is to develop 100% biobased, recyclable, thermosetting fibre composites that are ready for deployment.

You will work on natural-long fibre composites with recyclable and dynamic (vitrimer) polyester resins, studying processing, curing, recycling, and the microstructure to link processing to performance and circularity.

Qualifications

• PhD required with focus on composites and processing.
• Experience with natural-fibre or thermoset/thermoplastic composites is preferred.
• Strong scientific writing and oral communication skills.

Responsabilités

• Develop natural-long fibre composites with recyclable resins.
• Investigate curing behaviour and processing routes.
• Analyse microstructure and mechanical properties.
• Collaborate with academic and industrial partners.
