CRC 1411 News

Surface properties of nanoparticles and the corresponding (de-) agglomeration phenomena are crucial for nanoparticle functionalities and processability. However, especially in optically dense media the investigation of agglomeration is challenging. Three groups of the CRC1411 have joined forces for ...

Two CRC1411-related lectures taught by Prof. Nicolas Vogel were included in the “Bestenlisten”, with “Polymer Materials” ranking 2nd, and "Grenzflächen in der Biotechnologie” ranking 3rd in the whole TechFac. These awards show how the results of the CRC1411 and LFG research contribute to the success...

The recent joint paper of the groups of the PIs Harting, Vogel, Peukert, Inayat and Fröba, published in the Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, made it to the cover! Here we described how particles diffuse in confinement. Read more here.

The unique optical and catalytic properties of atomically precise gold nanoclusters make them highly promising candidates for advanced photovoltaic, catalytic and sensing applications. Since these properties strongly depend on the exact nanocluster size, separation techniques are required to produce...

Controlling the structure and porosity in hierarchical porous materials is a key design feature that enables their successful application in chromatography. Led by researchers of the project B01, CRC1411 researchers tailor the emergent, hierarchical porosity in spray-dried supraparticles via distinc...

Particle diffusion under confinement is one of the key parameters for the design, optimization, and understanding of particle chromatography. A joint effort of the groups of the PIs Harting, Vogel, Peukert, Inayat and Fröba, published in the Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, sheds light ...

According to an evaluation by Stanford University, our PIs Prof. Martin Hartmann and Prof. Matthias Thommes are among the top 2 percent of the most cited scientists worldwide. The list was published by researchers at Stanford University who evaluated the Scopus database, the largest abstract and cit...

Polymeric additives enable homogeneous drying of dispersed particles Have you ever spilled your coffee? You may have noticed how the coffee dries into an intriguing stain with a bright centre and a dark ring encircling it. This ‘coffee ring’ forms because the liquid evaporates faster at the ...

In the afternoon of 9 February, 2022, the annual Poster Session and Awards Ceremony of the Elite Masters Programme in Advanced Materials and Processes (MAP) took place. Of the 27 posters on display, 10 were on research projects contributing to CRC 1411 "Design of Particulate Products" or supervised ...

In November 2021, Professor and PI Nicolas Vogel of the Institute of Particle Technology was awarded the “Lehrpreis der technischen Fakultät” (Teaching award of the Faculty of Engineering). According to the selection committee, the awards reflects the excellent student evaluations of the courses giv...
