I started on March 28th a 12-month post-doctorate on the synthesis and catalytic performance of supported non-noble metal catalysts such as nitrides (in collaboration with the ISCR Rennes) and noble metal produced from recycling of electronic waste (in collaboration with the ICSM of Marcoule).

I am the Saint-Gobain administrative manager for the LSFC team.
My research topics focus on the synthesis of inorganic materials and supported-metal catalysts. These materials have a targeted application in the field of heterogeneous catalysis, notably for the oxidation of atmospheric pollutants such as toluene and carbon monoxide.

My topics of research are focused on materials for heterogeneous catalysis; specifically for oxidation of pollutants (CO, CH4, toluene, formaldehyde). I study diverse synthesis pathways (Pecchini, sol-gel, hydrothermal, melted salts). I then study the gas-materials interactions in order to better understand their catalytic performances.

Michaël is working on the direct valorisation of noble metals from electronic waste for application in heterogeneous catalysis, in particular for the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (toluene and formaldehyde). He is working at the ICSM (Marcoule) under the supervision of Damien Bourgeois and at the LSFC.
My current research focuses on the development of methods for the production of metal oxide powders by chemical synthesis. I rely on my skills and knowledge in chemistry and material science to control the morphology and porosity of the particles composing these powders.
In addition, I am also interested in the formulation and shaping processes of technical ceramics. In particular, I work on the development of all-oxide ceramic matrix composites produced by 3D printing.

My research project focuses on the synthesis, modeling and characterization of ceramic metamaterials. The synthesis routes and the numerical and experimental tools developed in this project should allow the development of new thermal emitters with tunable emissive properties in order to enhance the energy efficiency of high temperature industrial processes.

My research topics are focused on complex materials for heterogeneous catalysis; notably with applications as pollutants oxidation. I am mainly interested in the influence of the structural properties of the materials on their catalytic properties.
Email: Remy.Pointecouteau@saint-gobain.com
My research is focused on the formation of organised composite materials, such as "artificial nacres". I study both the synthesis of anisotropic particles that can be used as "bricks" in the material and the (self-)assembly methods to organise and shape the composite.

Mail: Julien.Schmitt@saint-gobain.com
My scientific activities are focused on the rational design of materials and their evaluation for functional applications (environmental remediation and energy storage/conversion). At LSFC, I investigate the study on structure control of materials for thermo-mechanical applications. I focus on the synthesis of anisotropic technical ceramic particles and their assembly to prepare functional monoliths- via their arrangement in a "brick-and-mortar" like structure.
