📢 New paper in Advanced Science! We report low-cost fabrics for solar-driven interfacial evaporation. Just 1 m² of fabric can produce ~4 L of clean water per hour!💧 Thanks to Mingqing (our visiting CSC student) & her supervisor in Shanghai, Yaozu. advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

🚨 PhD opportunity 🚨 Join us in Vienna 🇦🇹 to develop porous polymer membranes for selective water purification.💧 Remove heavy metals, REEs & PFAS, and explore sustainable recovery. Apply by 31.03.2025 via the website below! 👉 circularbioengineering.at/jobs_program_1 (PhD 1.8)

Many of the old Imperial Chem Eng & Chemistry crew came. Was fun catching up after many years. Was almost like our group meetings years back.

Our International PaCE Xmas Symposium started 10 years, initiated by former group members. We finished the 9th edition early on Friday. Many thanks to the group members who organized, KY Lee for co-hosting, all who came, presented, asked questions, and contributed to an inspiring atmosphere - fun!

In this video Gunda Köllensperger and her colleagues at #univie @bismarck-pace.bsky.social ce.bsky.social, @juergenzanghellini.bsky.social & @robbiewoody.bsky.social explain how cutting-edge research is revolutionizing materials science to build a sustainable future. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VW6...

Calling all polymer scientists! Let’s re-find each other as people continue to migrate over! Please tag people in the comments and share! I’ll continue updating as we find more people. #polymers go.bsky.app/AgjxzFa

Just returned from the kick-off meeting of our EU funded DCDYNAMIC project. We had a great time in Manchester meeting our partners. Together, we are developing new high-voltage cables to connect offshore wind farms to the grid: dcdynamic.eu

In our latest work, we used sulfonated hypercrosslinked polymers as acid catalysts for esterification. We found a weird payoff - more acidic networks gave faster conversions while less acidic catalysts, although slower, gave much improved selectivities.

I’m pleasantly surprised at how many scientists have migrated here! 🧑‍🔬👨‍🔬
