Research Fellow in Membrane Catalysis (2D and Porous Material Nanochannels) at NTU Singapore
Job Description
NTU’s School of Materials Science and Engineering is hiring a research fellow in membrane catalysis. The role designs nanochannel materials, fabricates devices for ionic and molecular transport, and studies system-level applications, preparing 2D and porous materials for nanochannels and analysing density, microstructure and mechanical and thermal properties. It asks for at least three years of experience in membrane separation and catalysis.
