E.J. Postma MSc (Erik)

After graduation of my Bachelor of Applied Sciences in organic chemistry, I worked in the bio-plastic industry to contribute to a sustainable world. To broaden my expertise, I continued to study physical chemistry at the University of Wageningen. Nowadays, I investigate the interactions between polymers and nano-particles, proteins, liquids, or small molecules with chemistry, physics and simulations to gain fundamental insight for practical applications.

Expertise

• Chemistry

  • Antifouling
  • Polymer Chain

• Material Science

  • Atomic Force Microscopy
  • Desorption
  • Polymer Brush
  • Biosensor
  • Surface (Surface Science)
  • Density

Organisations

Coatings with switchable adhesives contribute to recycling of valuable resources from feed streams. In particular, I research reversible adsorption of proteins and flavor molecules to coatings with electrical affinity switches.
