Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Coatings: Targeting Fundamental Adsorption Behavior of Polyelectrolytes: A Multi-Institutional Program

摘要与有机溶剂相比，EEC-9713064琼斯因素对聚电解质的影响更大、更复杂。缺乏理论与实验的定量比较，因此缺乏对这些因素的全面理解。只有一小部分用聚电解质进行的研究使用了具有足够单分散分子量分布的样品来定量分离相关现象。该合作(TIE)项目利用两个产学合作研究中心的专业知识来解决这一问题。东密歇根大学工业/大学合作研究中心涂料研究中心的研究人员将合成三类聚合物来解决这项研究。利哈伊大学工业/大学聚合物界面合作研究中心的研究人员将进行基础研究，以建立对这些聚合物吸收行为的基础了解。

ABSTRACT EEC-9713064 JONES Factors influencing polyelectrolyte are greater and more complex than those in organic solvents. Quantitative comparison of theory to experiment, and therefore a comprehensive understanding of these factors, is lacking. Only a fraction studies conducted with polyelectrolytes used samples with sufficient monodisperse molecular weight distribution to quantitatively isolate the relevant phenomena. This collaboration (TIE) project utilizes the expertise of two Industry/University Cooperative Research Centers to address this problem. Researchers at the Industry/University Cooperative Research Centers for Coatings Research at Eastern Michigan University will synthesize three classes of polymers to address the study. Researchers at the Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Polymer Interfaces at Lehigh University will perform fundamental studies to build a ground-up understanding of the absorption behavior of these polymers.
