Welcoming friends from Tohoku University

Our friends from Tohoku University visited Wageningen University also to discuss the new opportunities of the amazing new synchrotron being completed in Sendai. We visited the Kroller-Moller museum to also enjoy a social program.

Changes in thermomechanical properties of feed in relation to composition and their effect on pellet manufacturing

Triangle plots used to confuse me, until I was told to see them as a cut through the corner of a 3D cube, with the three axes spanning the variables varied: P + S + W = constant! T. M.M. Bastiaansen, R. T. Benders, J. A. Dijksman, M. Thomas, W. H. Hendriks, S. de Vries,Continue reading “Changes in thermomechanical properties of feed in relation to composition and their effect on pellet manufacturing”

Reading the classics

Using the train to read your classics is such a nice way to spend your time. Thomas Kuhn’s work is never boring.

Phase separation in supramolecular and covalent adaptable networks

A review article of an emerging topic, written by two great students! Martijn H. P. de Heer Kloots, Sybren K. Schoustra, Joshua A. Dijksman, Maarten M. J. Smulders — Soft Matter 19, 2857–2877 (2023) 10.1039/d3sm00047h

Spin echo… echo… echo

Testing some physics practicum NMR setups, home built by UvA Technologie Centrum

Getting a better picture

At SOLEIL in Saclay, Paris we used some synchtron beamtime to do 3D tomography. The results need to be kept under wraps, more details will come soon!

Giving an (online) talk in Hong Kong

Thanks Anderson Shum for hosting, Xiufeng Li for arranging and Gloria Lam for the help setting things up!

Peer review is academic work

And its good habit to do this as open as possible, although there are caveats.
