André Groeschel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

André H. Gröschel (* 1983 in Pegnitz ) is a German chemist ( macromolecular chemistry ).

After graduating from high school in Pegnitz (2001), Gröschel studied chemistry at the University of Bayreuth with a diploma in 2008 ( Block Copolymers for Cotton Modification ) and a dissertation in 2012 ( Bottom up self Assembly across Hierarchies: From Triblock Terpolymers to Patchy Particles to Colloidal (Co) Polymers ). As a post-doctoral student he was at Aalto University in Finland. Since 2016 he has been a junior professor at the University of Duisburg-Essen (laboratory for colloid and polymer sciences, NETZ - NanoEnergieTechnikZentrum).

He is concerned with the development of functional nanomaterials that are self-assembled. The desired properties are, for example, optical nature, high porosity, interface stability, biocompatibility and catalysis. The starting point are block copolymers and colloids .

For 2018 he received the Dannie Heineman Prize for work on self-organization processes of colloids and hybrid nanoparticles, in particular for the controlled production of novel structures from well-defined, macromolecular building blocks (laudation).
