… due to their highly porous structure. We have carried out unique preliminary trials showing that the production of aerogel fibres is possible. Porous aerogel fibres Hypothesis and Objectives: - Aerogel fibres could serve as drug release systems as they consist mainly of pores which could be filled. - Aerogel fibres can be spun from biocompatible polymers. - How can the drug release be influenced by pore size, pore size distribution and molecular orientation? - Which polymers do perform best? - Which process is needed to achieve the necessary structure? Setting … fibres Impact: Aerogel could solve the problem of too fast or too slow release of drug (therapeutically concentration not reached or exceeded) by pore structure design of biocompatible fibre structures. Requirements candidate: Highly motivated student with good English communication skills and proactive and resolute attitude, chemistry or polymer processing background Keywords: Fibre, biobased, aerogel, process-simulation, polymer, textile Top 5 selected publications: 1.
