About us
To enhance our ability
to produce organic, inorganic
and composite materials
The laboratory of Catalysis, Polymerisation, Process and Materials (CP2M) was created in 2021 as a result of the fusion of the Laboratory for the Chemistry, Catalysis, Polymers and Process (C2P2) and Catalytic Process Engineering Laboratory (LGPC).
All technologies
REACTORS
One of the keys to the research done at the CP2M is that we focus on studying kinetics, particle formation and the production of different materials under commercially viable conditions. To this end we have developed many different kinds of reactors for the study of:
- Homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis
- Catalytic Polymerization
- Free Radical Polymerization
SYNTHESIS EQUIPMENT
We require many different kinds of synthesis equipment for homogeneous and heterogeneous systems, and for raw material preparation. This includes in-house designed vacuum systems,
CHARACTERIZATION
Characterization is the key to many of our research activities, whether it is characterization of raw materials, or evaluation of reaction products or byproducts. The CP2M has worked hard to maintain a high profile in this area, and has amassed a large variety of characterization equipment for many different applications and materials.
EXPERTISE
In addition to the ”hardware” above, we have developed a range of expertise in many specific areas. More to come
SERVICE WORK
The laboratory offers a range of analytical service work for both academic and private sector needs.
SAMPLE PREPARATION AND PROCESSING
Here is listed different pieces of equipment used for the preparation and processing of samples

Journée spéciale des femmes et filles de sciences édition 2026
À quelques mois de la fin de sa thèse, Julia Florez-Alban s'est prêtée à l'expérience de pitcher sa thèse en 180 secondes. Un exercice qu'elle a très bien réuissi. Elle effectue sa thèse au sein de l'équipe PCM sous la direction de M. Vincent Monteil et en collaboration avec l'IFPEN. Je vous laisse découvrir le sujet de ses recherches :
