Welcome to the Polymer Separation, an international research group spanning across Europe and Africa. The group was established in 2007 and joins together researchers from Stellenbosch University and Leibniz-Intitut für Polymerforschung.
We are a joint research group across Stellenbosch University and Leibniz-Institut für Polymerforschung Dresden with more than 15 years’ experience. Our main focus areas are interaction and size exclusion chromatography, field flow fractionation and multiple detection techniques. Through a collaborative effort that includes postgraduates, scientists and technicians alike, we study the structure-property relation of advanced macromolecular systems.
“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” – An African Proverb
We are an international group of scientists with research facilities in Germany and South Africa.
Congratulations to Simi, who successfully completed the defence of her MSc thesis at Stellenbosch University. Best wishes for her next steps!
The group took some time out of the laboratories to refresh over a short hiking trip.
