Thesis Work for Design for circularity – Reversible adhesives

Tillverkning och produktion · Produktion och montering · Produktionsteknik

I korthet

This thesis work focuses on designing reversible adhesives to enable circularity in industrial products, specifically for de-bonding permanent magnets. The research involves evaluating adhesive formulations and assessing their de-bonding performance for improved material recovery and end-of-life disassembly.

Ansvarsområden

Part of the Materials Technology & Electromagnetics team at ABB Corporate Research in Västerås, Sweden.
Develop, design, build, and test new concepts and prototypes related to physical and digital powertrains or electrical devices.
Focus on reversible adhesives to enable sufficient temperature class but still de-bondable at the end of product service life.
Evaluate adhesive formulations based on chemical, thermal, and adhesive properties.
Assess de-bonding performance on selected disassembly process(es).

Krav

Academic level of Master of Science.
Background in Material design, Chemical Engineering, Polymer chemistry, Organic chemistry or Bio-chemistry.
Work independently under supervision to reach agreed targets.
Motivation to solve industrial problems using state-of-the-art methods.
Experience of polymeric formulation design and experimental work with adhesives.
Communication skills in oral and written English.
