The Renewable Materials and Nanotechnology Group at the KU Leuven Campus Kortrijk (Kulak) was established in 2013 by Prof. Thielemans with an Odysseusgrant from FWO.
Our group investigates methodologies to create high-value (nano)materials from renewable materials in its broadest sense. Our interdisciplinary team aims to elucidate the structure-processing-property relationships of these materials by developing an understanding from the molecular level (chemistry), over processing (chemical engineering), to their macroscopic properties (materials science).
