BonLab at Brightlands Polymer Days 2024 (BPD24)

  • Brightlands Chemelot Campus (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Join us for the 2nd edition of the Brightlands Polymer Days 2024 (BPD24) at Brightlands Chemelot Campus on May 27 and 28, 2024. A unique convergence of industrial and academic, senior and junior scientists in the field of polymer science, will explore the latest advancements across four key categories:

• Circular and Sustainable Polymers: Discover biobased materials, bonding, debonding, and biodegradability.

• Energy: Explore energy harvesting, storage, transport, and efficiency.

• Health: Dive into hydrogels, drug delivery, bio-printing, and tissue engineering.

• New Insights: Uncover breakthroughs in synthesis, characterization/methods, and theory.

Prof. dr. ir. Stefan Bon has been invited to give a keynote lecture in which he will discuss the latest research developments from his team, BonLab, based at the University of Warwick, UK.

Join us to shape the future of polymer science.

See you at BPD24!

Stefan Bon is invited speaker at ECCo 2024: Early Career Colloid Network

The Early Career Colloid Network was established to provide a forum for discussion and facilitate knowledge exchange for early career scientists in all aspects of Colloidal Science. It is primarily aimed at early career scientists in academia and industry. ECCo is the annual meeting that brings together the two communities to discuss their current activities and provide training and networking opportunities.

Prof. dr. ir. Stefan Bon says: “I am honoured and excited to have been invited to speak at this meeting. I am very much looking forward to meeting all these talented people, sharing stories, talking fun science, and networking.”

Stefan Bon gives outreach talk to sixth-form students at ACORNS 2024

Every year, Warwick ChemSoc, the Chemistry students’ society at Warwick University, organises a fantastic science event for sixth-form students in the region. The Annual Conference On Research in Natural Sciences (ACORNS) aims to encourage young people between 16 and 18 years old to explore the sciences. The one-day event is set up to help students decide whether further study in science would be the path for them by providing the opportunity to experience a series of mini-lectures presented by academics from Warwick University. On the day, there are also opportunities to engage and hear from current Warwick Science students and get a snapshot of what life is like at university.

Prof. dr. ir. Stefan Bon says: “Warwick ChemSoc is a fantastic group of people who organise a range of events each year to bring together not only Chemistry students and staff but also Warwick people from other disciplines and people from outside the University. They have a pivotal role in the Department of Chemistry and provide a fantastic environment for learning, career progress, socializing, and well-being. I have always been a strong supporter of Warwick ChemSoc, and I am very happy to contribute again to this years’ exciting ACORNS program.”

BonLab will be at IPCG 2023

The international conference organized by the International Polymer Colloids Group (IPCG) traditionally is one of the highlights where BonLab showcases their latest work. This year the meeting is held at Queens University in Canada.

Emily Brodgen and Josh Davies, both PhD researchers, will be representing our team and showcase some of the latest research work from our team. Emily will talk and the Graduate Research Seminar on linerless pressure sensitive adhesives made from mixtures of “hard” and “soft” polymer latexes, and both Emily and Josh will have posters at the main conference.
