Visit of Prof. Agustín Ríos from ICMPE
We had the great pleasure to welcome Prof. Agustín Ríos from ICMPE (Institut de Chimie et des Matériaux Paris-Est) within the ERASMUS+ programme. Agustín Ríos gave a lecture series on polymers with particular focus on the relation between the chemistry of these materials and their properties relevant in engineering. Based on his long-standing expertise in the development of polymers from renewable resources, he gave detailed insights into the current challenges in the field of bio-based polymer materials. Agustín Ríos motiviated all participants to actively contribute, among others by using construction kits for long-chain molecules. We thank Agustín Ríos very much for sharing his knowledge and experience in the field of these fascinating materials!
