Project

Calorimetry and upscaling of organic opto-electronic materials.

The proposed project studies the upscaling of three reactions for the synthesis of PPV oligomers with proven opto-electronic properties. The goal of the project is to determine, from a process point of view, the most suitable product and synthesis method from three possible candidates. In addition, a method will be optimized to determine heats of reaction based on quantum chemical calculations, and from the calorimetric experiments fundamental insights into the mechanisms of the reactions that will be studied will emerge.
