IN4SOC EXPERIENCE Title: Inorganic synthesis of Magnesium and Cobalt – based hydroxy-fluorides Organization: Institut de Chimie de la Matière Condensée de Bordeaux (ICMCB) Short description: Magnesium hydroxy fluoride is an original class of heterogeneous catalyst for the valuation of biomass because of the modulation of Lewis basicity, the function of the F/OH atomic ratio. The aim was to access partially hydroxylated Magnesium fluoride by hydrolysis of Magnesium fluoride, prepared by the sol-gel route, at various temperatures and its extension to other inorganic fluorides with the competition of partial oxidation in order to form partially hydroxylated transition metal fluorides or oxyfluorides. | |
Knowledge areas: Chemistry and Photonics of Oxides and Fluorides Materials | |
SDGS: SDG#7: Affordable and Clean Energy, SDG#13: Climate Action | |
Competences: Cross-Cultural interpersonal abilities and Multicultural awareness, ability to learn autonomously, communication skills, and Time management. | |
About the experience: My participation in the IN4SOC project instilled a conscious reflection on my social and civic responsibility as a Student. It also further deepened my awareness about the personal and transversal competencies necessary for employability, social inclusion, and navigation of our increasingly complex world. |
