The postdoctoral researcher will be responsible for developing new nanoparticulate materials for the encapsulation of azelaic acid. The objective will be to maximize the active ingredient loading while obtaining particles that are homogeneous in size and composition, with reproducible properties. Particular attention will be paid to developing green chemistry-based synthesis processes, preferably avoiding the use of organic solvents. The resulting nanoparticulate systems will then undergo comprehensive physicochemical characterization to establish relationships between their composition, structure and properties. Main tasks include chemical synthesis, physicochemical characterization, encapsulation studies (HPLC), and degradation studies in biological media.
