PhD Studentship: EPSRC Supported EngD Project. Design and Optimisation of Surface Actives for Sustainable Hygiene Products

Hair conditioning is an essential process to our daily life, whereby a layer of formulated product is deposited on hair surface, resulting in desirable benefits. Its global market was ~ 9.14 Billion USD in 2021, and has a significant impact on not only the wellbeing of human, but the environment. The chemical compounds deposited on hair fibres include fatty...

As the largest organ of human being, skin acts as a barrier to the external environment, and accommodates a diverse microbiota comprised of bacteria, fungi, viruses, and microeukaryotes. Most of such skin microbes are harmless or commensal organisms that play essential roles in inhibiting colonization by pathogenic microbes or modulating innate and adaptive...

Effective, efficient, and residue-free washing has long been a result sought by users of automatic dishwashers. Understanding the processes and mechanisms involved in the wash phases of an automatic dishwashing cycle, which lead to the formation of spots and thin film on dishware, is important to enable the development of superior automatic dishwashing...

The influence of plastic pollution on our environment has been well documented, however, there remains a knowledge gap between relating to how new polymers and plastics might biodegrade. To this end, we have a fully funded PhD studentship (due to eligibility criteria, only for UK applicants) that will focus on developing sustainable polymer platforms,...

Johnson Matthey [JM] makes formulated products, catalysing the net zero transition. These are heavily characterised and tested during product development and manufacturing. The move towards better process efficiency, product control and increasing digitisation of manufacturing plant leads inexorably to a need for improved on-line measurement, and real time...

ARCANE is a collaborative research project across three leading UK universities and Rolls-Royce plc. The project aims to develop the state-of-the-art scientific understanding of nucleation defect formation within directionally solidified single crystal (SX) castings, and their role in the reduction in mechanical performance, through novel experimental...
