HiWi at the Center for Plastics Analysis and Testing (KAP): Focus on thermal analysis

Significant involvement in industry projects and research initiatives.

A core area of polymer analysis is thermal analysis. The diverse and insightful techniques of thermal analysis help to identify complex relationships between processing, structure, and properties of plastics. These methods allow for the identification and characterisation of polymers, as well as the detection of processing influences and material damage.

Your tasks:

  • Significant involvement in industrial projects and research projects
  • Carrying out analyses (DSC, TGA, TMA, DMA, etc.)
  • Independent evaluation and interpretation of results
  • Independent implementation of device instructions

Your profile:

  • Interest in the support of highly sensitive analysis devices
  • Degree in chemistry, mechanical engineering, physics, materials science or similar.
  • Structured and solution-oriented independent way of working
  • Enjoyment of laboratory work and manual dexterity as well as the implementation of equipment instructions with other students are desirable
