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

摘要EEC-9713064琼斯 影响溶剂化的因素比有机溶剂中的因素更多、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。 只有一小部分研究与聚电解质使用的样品具有足够的单分散分子量分布，定量分离相关的现象。 这个合作项目利用两个工业/大学合作研究中心的专业知识来解决这个问题。 东密歇根大学涂料研究工业/大学合作研究中心的研究人员将合成三类聚合物来解决这项研究。 利哈伊大学聚合物界面工业/大学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全面了解。

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.
