Advanced Elastomers Product Development Internship – Impact of filler properties on application behavior of formulated sealants and adhesives

About you and this role

We are looking for you, an ambitious Bachelor or Master student, to support our Advanced Elastomers Product Development by doing an internship project to understand the impact of filler properties on application behavior of formulated sealants and adhesives and develop methods of physico-chemical and rheological characterization of typical fillers for our location in Seneffe, Belgium.

Dow is offering great career opportunities in a global and international environment.
The department that will welcome you support businesses like Building & Infrastructure as well as Mobility & transportations applications. Products are typically adhesives and sealants.

The final goal is to build mechanistic understanding of how the moisture, the specific surface treatment etc. of typical fillers impact the processability and workability of sealants and adhesives. You will work in collaboration with our technical team based at Seneffe and will engage with other groups in production or technical service. This project will support key applications in the Building & Infrastructure segment.

Responsibilities

Work on formulation of sealants & adhesives
Characterize silicone sealants & adhesives
Develop methods of physico-chemical and rheological characterization of typical fillers
Collaboration with our team and engage with different teams to communicate results and learnings
