National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) – Internal Metallic Coatings

Albany, Oregon

Apply by 3/16/19

Through the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE), this posting seeks a graduate student or postdoctoral researcher who is interested in being a part of the interdisciplinary team researching ways to minimize the susceptibility of cathodically protected pipeline to corrosion at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL). NETL is researching the development of internal metallic coatings as a means of corrosion protection for natural gas pipelines. NETL is a multi-disciplinary, scientific and technical-oriented national laboratory.

The successful candidate will have a strong background in these elements (but not necessarily all):

·        Assisting in investigating hydrogen entry, transport, trapping, and loss in steels with and without coatings in aqueous electrolytes.

·        Communicating research findings through publications and presentations.

·        Knowledge of metallurgy, corrosion, and electrochemistry

·        Good hands-on laboratory skills.

·        Experience using a scanning electron microscopy is desired.

·        Course work in metallurgy, chemistry, and/ or materials science and engineering.
