[Prodeq-divulgacao] Seminar “Anionic Polymerization: From High – Vaccum Apparatuses to Industrial Applications” - DEQ/FCTUC - July 3rd at 3 pm - PhD/Post-Doct fellowships

[vasco]

*SEMINAR at DEQ/FCTUC*

**

*“Anionic Polymerization: From High – Vaccum Apparatuses to Industrial 
Applications”*

Prof Nikos Hadjichristidis,

Professor of Chemical Sciences, King Abdullah University of Science and 
Technology (KAUST), Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

July 3^rd 2014 at 3pm

Noble Amphitheater (Floor -2) Chemical Engineering Department, Faculty 
of Sciences and Technology of the University

*Short CV:*Prof. Hadjichristidis is an international reference in 
polymer science (450 papers ISI, h-index: 63, 15350 citations, 18 
patents, editor of 4 books and author of 1 book on Block Copolymers). 
His research interests include synthesis of novel homopolymers, 
copolymers and hybrids (polymers/polypeptides, polymers/CNT) with 
well-defined complex macromolecular architectures (star, comb, cyclic, 
dendritic, etc ) by using anionic polymerization (AP) high vacuum 
techniques, as well as combinations of AP with other polymerization 
methodologies (, ATRP, TEMPO, catalytic, etc). These polymers are ideal 
models for checking the theory, understanding and improving the 
performance of industrial polymers (e.g. polyethylene, polystyrene based 
thermoplastic elastomers) and are potential candidates for high-tech 
applications (e.g. nanolithography, drug delivery, high temperature 
membranes).

*Interviews for PhD/Post-Doct fellowships*

Prof. Hadjichristidis is recruting PhD and Post-Docts students to work 
in his research group at King Abdullah University of Science and 
Technology. KAUST is a fast growing University with very good faculty 
and facilities. Interviews for potential candidates will be scheduled to 
Thursday, July 3^rd ,  at 5 pm. Anyone interested to join Prof. 
Hadjichristidis’ research group should send a message to 
jcoelho at eq.uc.pt <mailto:jcoelho at eq.uc.pt>until July 1^st .
