Internship | Synthesis for functional coatings, films and adhesives

About this position

Functional Coatings, Films and Adhesives is a program at TNO/ Brightlands Materials Center, focusing on the development of innovative materials and coatings that contribute to reducing the buildings energy consumption. The topics studied in the group are rather broad (thermochromic materials, recycling of critical raw materials, induction heating…). For this internship we are looking for an intern that would integrate a team of scientist and researchers and would work on one of our projects involving latex synthesis and/or the recycling of a spent catalyst.

What will be your role?

You will participate in a team of scientists and research engineers at Brightlands Materials Center at the Brightlands Chemelot Campus. Your internship will focus about recycling a vanadium based waste to transform it into V2O5; a precursor used to fabricate our thermochromic window coatings. Your tasks will involve the optimizatio...
