PhD student position in biobased surfactant synthesis

Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB

The main purpose of this project is to develop new biobased surfactants using sustainable raw materials as an alternative to conventional petrochemical-derived surfactants. Since most surfactants today are synthesized from fossil-based feedstocks, transitioning to biobased alternatives could significantly reduce environmental impact and reliance on non-renewable resources. However, despite major advancements in the field, biobased surfactants often face challenges in achieving the same...
