Internship or Master/Bachelor-Thesis - Nickel Equivalent Dependency on Stainless Steels

Mission

• Nickel is a relatively expensive alloying element of stainless-steel. An open point is the influence of lowering the Nickel content but keeping the material properties. In this work this influence shall be studied.
• Basic qualification of different stainless steels (hardness, corrosion, mechanical properties, …)
• Planning and execution of different tests as well as data analysis
• Comparison of different materials for future applications
• Presentation of the results in front of an international audience

Profile

• Study of material science or physics
• Background in material testing especially testing of metals
• Practical laboratory experience
• Ability to work independently and high motivation
• Language: English or German
