Polymeric And Composites Processes Traineeship | [A-622]

The Polymeric and Composites Processes Unit at Eurecat strives to improve compounding technologies and plastic processing by conducting research in plastics, composites, characterization, and analysis to enhance design and achieve functional improvements.

Our PCP unit is offering different positions for Materials, Mechanical, or Mechatronics students who are interested in developing their bachelor/master thesis in the polymeric and composites processes domain.

Environmental Impact:The main goal will be to understand the essential environmental factors in the plastic transformation industry by preparing a simplified methodology with rough tabulated values for an initial comparative evaluation.

Post Industrial Recycled Polymers:The main goal will be to determine the reprocessability grade of polymers while maintaining the main properties that guarantee their functionality, attempting to set a correlation between polymer properties and reprocessability.

Post Consumer Recycled Polymers:To determine the influence of post-consumer recycled polymers from different batches or sources on the injection molding process, the student will work to establish a correlation between polymer properties and their influence on process stability.

Embedded Organic Photovoltaic Cells (OPV):To improve the embedded OPV performance through the addition of micro-texture on the plastic surface, the student will study the effect of different texture types on OPV performance, including diffusive textures, Fresnel lens textures, and light guide textures.
