Description

Are you passionate about research? So are we Come and join us:

The Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) is a Research and Technology Organization (RTO) active in the fields of materials, environment and IT.

By transforming scientific knowledge into technologies, smart data and tools, LIST empowers citizens in their choices, public authorities in their decisions and businesses in their strategies.

You 'd like to contribute as an intern? Join our Materials Research and Technology department:

Through its research into advanced materials and processes, the "Materials Research and Technology" (MRT) department, with its 200 researchers and engineers, contributes to the emergence of enabling technologies that underpin the innovation processes of local and international industry.

MRT's activities hinge on four thematic pillars:
nanomaterials and nanotechnology, scientific instrumentation and process technology, structural composites, and functional polymers.

Interfaces in composites play a key role in many areas such as automotive sector, technical têxtiles. This is particularly the case in polymer composites whose performances are mainly driven by the interface and interphase integrity.

In this area, the challenge is to develop new approaches to improve interfacial adhesion between symmetric and dissymmetric materials and on the opposite to promote disassembly to fit to recycling issues.

Responsibilities:

How will you contribute?:

Within the framework of this internship, you will:

develop new bio-inspired-based polymers,

- use of the synthesized polymers as coatings onto the fibre,
- characterize the fibre surface and evaluate the efficiency of the designed solutions on composite materials.

Concerning the project follow-up, it will be asked to prepare a PowerPoint presentation that will be regularly updated with new results and presented to the supervising team.

A final report and a final presentation will have to be prepared.
