User Review
( vote)Nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) has extraordinary mechanical and film forming properties. The objective of our research is to reveal and further develop the possibilities of NFC as barrier film in combination with nanoscaled clay as barrier promoter to open up new paths for sustainable packaging solutions.
The successful candidate has a master degree in pulp and paper technology or related fields and is interested to work in close collaboration with a Swiss industrial partner (Paper industry). Curtain coating technology will be used to develop barrier alternatives for substitution of aluminium foil composites. The research results will be documented by physical and chemical analysis, high-resolution spectroscopy and microscopy.
We expect a highly motivated, open-minded person with a strong interest in material science and fluent proficiency in English and German. Good talent in design and operation of experimental set-ups are an advantage.
You will be working in an international, science oriented team addressing diverse fields of wood science and technology.
The position is limited to 3 years and available from October 1. To apply, please send a letter of motivation, your CV and names and contacts of two references.
We look forward to receive your application until 30.08.2008.

I really like your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you make this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz reply as I’m looking to design my own blog and would like to find out where u got this from. many thanks
Dear Sir/Madam
-I’m Nader Mayeli. I was graduated in the course of Wood and Paper Science and Technology, Azad University , Science and Research Branch, Tehran , Iran . I have fulfilled MSc thesis in the field of Enzymatic Deinking of waste papers (old newspaper – old magazine and mixed office waste papers) led by Dr. Mohammad TalaeiPour, I am interesting to study Ph.D. for Papermaking degree especially in the field of Recycling and Bio-Deinking of waste papers and Secondary fibers. (For continuing my education in Ph.D level, I have decided to continue my research project broadly that was performed for the first time in Iran and was accepted as A grade in M.A level, and gain a practical results in industry). If you are interested, I can present the details of my research to you. For performing this research project, I need to use a student loan or scholarship.
Please kindly send me your instructions for guiding me.

hello, i am phd student in pulp and paper technology in iran university. my question is that can i come to switzerland universities and do my laboratory work at there during 6 month?
This site is interesting
I am seeking for university admission and schoolarship in the field of wood sciences and technology . I obtained B.Tech. in Forestry and Wood Technology and M.Sc. in Wood Products Engineering.
I will be glad if I can get both the admission and schoolarship.
Thanks
