(Rhodia, P. Maestro)
Expertise in Colloids synthesis at the industrial scale : surfactants, specialty polymers, block copolymers, inorganic nanoparticles.
The use of these in formulation for dedicated applications.
“Applicability” on formulation : evaluation of basic behaviour of colloids in complex systems. Access to Macromolecular Engineering via CRP : An Infinite World of Complex Architectures
