SAMCAPS

SAMCAPS, which stands for Self-Assembled MicroCAPSules, is a Marie Skłodowska Curie European Industrial Doctorate project belonging to the Horizon 2020 framework, with two participating partners, one from academia (CSGI – Center for Colloid and Surface Science) and one from industry (Procter&Gamble). An important part of the project is the training of four early-stage researchers (ESRs) in the field of colloid and polymer science by the two partner organizations. The goal of the project is to develop bio-degradable materials for use in consumer goods. Specifically, the project will explore new eco-friendly approaches and methods of encapsulation that will be applied in home- and beauty care products where the targeted delivery of beneficial actives is required. We envision our research to lead to a new generation of products that are more efficient and at the same time environmentally-friendly!
