After completing in 2000 a PhD in Polymers obtained at the Materials Science Department of the University of Louvain (Belgium) Philippe joined the Certech (a university spin-off center in Belgium) working as project manager and being involved in many different applications from Polyolefins Gamma irradiation resistance to polyvinyl butyral modification. Philippe joined Total Elastomers Technical Support group in 2002 and then moved as block copolymers synthesis R&D manager in 2004 in the Lacq Research center (France). From 2007 to 2009 he moved back to the headquarters and managed the licensing activity of styrene (in collaboration with the Shaw Group) and Polystyrene. Late 2009 Philippe has been in charge of the relocalization of the Styrenics R&D activity to the Feluy Research Center (Belgium) dealing with R&D and Customers technical support activity. At the same period a new activity dealing with polymer foams has been created in order to support the future expandable polystyrene business. Starting late 2012 Philippe took the lead of a new department dealing with Polymer Materials Science in the Total Research & Technology Feluy center.
