-SIMS) eg methods for discrimination of similar polymeric materials in a coil coating (https//doi.org/10.1021/acs.analchem.7b04877). NPL and collaborators pioneered the revolutionary OrbiSIMS instrument

PhD Studentship: Novel Methods for Recycling: Synthesis of Degradable Polymers and Degradable Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives

of novel monomers that undergo radical ring-opening polymerization and can install weak links into the backbone of vinyl polymers. The polymer synthesis and characterization will take place in the Polymer

PhD Studentship Opportunity: Effect of Chemical Degradation and Formulation Stability on Viscoelastic Relaxation Processes

study the chemical ageing of a network by thermo-oxidative degradation. It is known that a combination of polymer scission and / or cross-linking occurs to alter the state of the polymeric network (in
