Research
- 10/2014 – 08/2015
SABIC Innovative Plastics in Bergen op Zoom, Netherlands – Internship
Internship title: Development and characterization of functional polymer surfaces
Supervisors: Ramon Groote, Alexander van Goudswaard
Tasks: Conducted my own research project about properties and modification of polymer surfaces. Performed various syntheses of modified monomers as well as radical polymerization and copolymerization reactions. Used various characterization techniques, such as NMR, ATR-FTIR, GPC, DSC and contact angle measurements.
