Mr Christian GRAILLAT
 | Area(s) of Research: Polymerisation in Dispersed Media and synthesis of latex by different emulsion technologies :
• Study and control of numerous parameters related to polymer synthesis (particle nucleation and stabilisation, relationship between ionic strength and limited coagulation, use of functional monomers, control of the pH…)
• Characterisation of colloids, evalution of particle size distribution as a function of conversion, and stability as a function of surface coverage, density of charges on surface, absorption/grafting of charges…
• Characterisation of the nature and type of charges grafted onto latex surfaces, partitioning of functional monomers between the particles and continuous phase;
• Production of multipopulated high solid content latices.
• Modification of existing industrial processes to help make them conform to current legislation, and in particular a reformulation of certain products to eliminate the use of dangerous monomers and/or solvents, etc. These studies require an understanding of the relationship synthesis-structure-properties in order to optimise the end-use properties of the applications in question.
Responsabilities: • Formation of temporary and permanent staff in polymerisation methods and technology.
• Operations in emulsion polymerisation laboratory.
• Polymer characterisation.
