Singapore Nanyang Technological University Full time

SusTex, an RGE-NTU Joint Research Centre on Sustainable Textile, will evaluate and propagate innovative solutions to enable material circularity from urban waste back into the value chain. SusTex will provide a pioneering platform to translate advances in green chemistry, artificial intelligence, and materials science into solutions for sustainable têxtile recycling, based on the framework of outcome engineering.

Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and optimize processes for cellulose-based material innovation, including fiber-cellulose composites and specialty cellulose products.-
- Characterize materials using standard physicochemical, mechanical, and structural analysis techniques.- Evaluate material performance in relation to durability, processability, and end-use requirements.- Collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams to innovate novel “waste-to-resource” cellulose-based materials/ products.- Prepare technical reports, publications, and presentations based on research outcomes.

Job Requirements:
- PhD in Materials Science, Polymer Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or a related field with a focus on cellulose, fibers, or sustainable materials.- Proven experience in cellulose/ bio-based fiber chemistry, fiber processing, or composite formulation.- Experience in developing specialty products, and working in compliance with industry standards will be considered highly advantageous.- Hands-on experience with material functionalization, modification techniques, and composite fabrication.- Strong understanding of structure-property relationships in cellulose and fiber-based materials.- Proficient in physicochemical, structural, and mechanical characterization methods (e.g., Rheometer, FTIR, SEM, tensile testing, etc).- Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative research team.- Excellent communication skills for reporting and presenting research findings.- Experience in translating lab-scale formulations to industrial-grade products.
