Camille Petit is an Associate Professor of Chemistry at Imperial College London. She designs and characterises functional materials for environmental sustainability.
Early life and education
Petit completed her MSc in chemistry at the École nationale supérieure de chimie de Montpellier in 2007.[1] She earned her PhD at City University of New York in 2011, working with Teresa Bandosz.[2][3][4] She was awarded the Springer Nature thesis award in 2012,[citation needed] for her dissertation Factors Affecting the Removal of Ammonia from Air on Carbonaceous Materials.[5]
Research and career
Petit completed postdoctoral research in Alissa Park's group at Columbia University.[4] She worked on carbon capture using nanoparticle organic hybrid materials (NOHMs). She synthesises them by ionic grafting polymer chains onto polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS).[4] She developed several characterisation techniques to analyse their suitability for carbon capture, including nuclear magnetic resonance, Attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry.[4] In 2011 she was awarded the French Carbon Group award.[6] In 2013 Petit joined Imperial College London.[4][7] She leads the Multifunctional Materials Laboratory.[8] Here she develops nano-colloids, graphene-based materials, nitride and metal-organic frameworks.[8] She has delivered several public lectures.[9][10][11]
