Proposal Number: CTS 9977451Principal Investigator: N. WagnerThis Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) award supports the acquisition of core instrumentation in the field of rheology at the University of Delaware. It is intended to augment the current capabilities and to replace current equipment with state of the art technology. The field of rheology is rapidly evolving, with a deeper focus on combined methods for probing material microstructures in complex fluids, as well as new challenges in such areas as biotechnology and advanced materials. The instrumentation will enable the University to add the new techniques of orthogonal superposition, high pressure rheometry, differential thermal rheometry, advanced rheo-optics, dielectric thermal analysis, and improved electrorheology. The instrumentation will be central to the University's multidisciplinary rheological community, which spans five departments and includes over 14 faculty, 39 Ph.D. students. 15 postdoctoral students, and 20 undergraduate research assistants. It will support research in the areas of polymers for electrorheological applications, coatings, complex fluids, photonic crystals, bio-engineered food additives, food processing, and high pressure surfactant solutions.

提案编号：CTS 9977451 首席研究员：N. Wagner 这项重大研究仪器 (MRI) 奖项支持购买特拉华大学流变学领域的核心仪器。其目的是增强当前的能力并用最先进的技术取代当前的设备。 流变学领域正在迅速发展，更加关注探测复杂流体中材料微观结构的组合方法，以及生物技术和先进材料等领域的新挑战。这些仪器将使大学能够添加正交叠加、高压流变测定、差热流变测定、先进流变光学、介电热分析和改进的电流变学等新技术。该仪器将成为该大学多学科流变学社区的核心，该社区横跨五个系，包括超过 14 名教员、39 名博士生。学生。博士后15名，本科生研究助理20名。它将支持电流变应用聚合物、涂料、复杂流体、光子晶体、生物工程食品添加剂、食品加工和高压表面活性剂溶液等领域的研究。
