Arbetsbeskrivning

At Renasens, we’re a small team building something ambitious: a textile recycling technology that will change the world.

We have developed a waterless process using minimal energy and chemicals with a neutral impact on fiber quality. This allows us to recycle the most challenging textile waste: blended post-consumer polycotton in any colour, with any additives, composition, or quality, utilizing what is currently the most common yet unwanted fraction of textile waste.

We are now looking at Textile Chemist to join the team.

Qualifications:

• PhD or Master's degree in Textile Chemistry, Material Science, Polymer Chemistry or related field
• Previous work and strong understanding in textile, textile coatings or fiber-based materials
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills

Responsibilities:

• Design and optimize chemical modification techniques for textiles (e.g., impregnation, functional layers, compatibilizers)
• Develop formulations or treatments to improve fiber interface performance and stability
• Analyze surface chemistry using techniques such as XPS, SEM, FTIR, or contact angle measurements
• Collaborate on scale-up strategy for coating/functionalization methods (batch or continuous)
