Dr. POL BARCELONA PONS

Post-doctoral Researcher

Researcher in the Development of advanced materials for 3D-Printing / Additive Manufacturing

Graduate in Materials Engineering from the University of Barcelona (2012-2016) and Master’s Degree in Applied Materials Chemistry (2016-2017) from the same university. In 2017, he began his doctoral studies with the DIOPMA group in the additive manufacturing of advanced materials, especially for obtaining technological ceramics.

He won an Adjunct Lecturer position from September 2018 until May 2018, when he resigned to obtain a Grant for recruiting new research staff (FI-2019).

His research is focused on obtaining stable aqueous and non-aqueous suspensions of ceramic materials, rheological characterization of materials, additive manufacturing processes or 3D printing and sintering operations at high temperatures and with a controlled atmosphere.

Practical teaching in the degrees of Chemistry (Materials Science), Chemical Engineering (Materials for Engineering and Mechanical Design of Equipment) and especially the degree of Materials Engineering (Materials for Engineering, Materials Laboratory, Obtaining and Processing of Materials, Structural and Technological Ceramics).
