Research Associate/Senior Research Associate in Polymer Engineering

Functions are invited for the function of Analysis Affiliate or Senior Analysis Affiliate in Polymer Engineering to discover the event of novel polymer blends appropriate for software as semi- or fully-reinforced composite constructions throughout the £3.5M “Designer Liner 2” programme. This analysis is funded by The Water Providers Regulation Authority (Ofwat), to basically redesign the polymeric linings for the following technology of water distribution pipes.

This function sits throughout the Bristol Composites Institute (BCI) which is a College of Bristol Specialist Analysis Institute. The Institute has 200+ members and brings collectively world-leading lecturers and companions to ship expertise coaching, analysis and know-how improvement.  

As a member of our workforce, you’ll work with different researchers to develop, formulate, deploy, and characterise the properties at each size scale from the molecules of the polymer matrix to the lay-up of ultimate elements, utilizing new constituents and new architectures.
