Berufserfahrung von Maria M. Velencoso
- Current 11 years and 7 months, since Dec 2014
Postdoctoral Researcher
Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research
- 7 months, Jan 2014 - Jul 2014
Research Engineer
Institute of Chemical and Environmental Technology, in a REPSOL project.
• Studied role of the side reactions of a recipe of conventional semibatch polyether polyol in order to formulate a rigorous mathematical reactor model. • Characterized changes in the polyol properties by international standard techniques.
- 4 months, Jun 2013 - Sep 2013
Research Assistant
Huntsman Polyurethanes
• Investigated influence of additives for rigid polyurethane foams in order to enhance the thermal insulation properties. • Studied effect of additives on cell gas content and lambda values of the rigid foams.
- 4 years, Oct 2009 - Sep 2013
Doctoral Researcher
Institute of Chemical and Environmental Technology (ITQUIMA)
• Introduced phosphorus compounds in the anionic polymerization process by means of initiation systems or monomers, in order to obtain polyether polyols with flame retardant properties. • Developed a strategy for the synthesis of functional polyols by means of the combination of anionic polymerization with “click” chemistry in order to obtain materials with flame retardant and fluorescence properties. • Evaluated the fire behaviour and thermal stability of polyurethanes.
- 4 months, Sep 2011 - Dec 2011
Research Assistant
Huntsman Polyurethanes
• Development of polyurethane coatings containing phosphorylated polyols in order to enhance fire-retardancy. • Analyzed thermal stability and time to ignition of the synthesized polyurethane coatings. • Interpreted cone calorimetry results.
- 10 months, Dec 2008 - Sep 2009
Experimental Scientist
Institute of Chemical and Environmental Technology (ITQUIMA)
• Cross-checked the analytical techniques for polyether polyol. • Preparation of the experimental procedure and set-up for the synthesis of polyols.
