This proposal describes an integrated research and educational plan studying the design and synthesis of electroactive and conducting polymers to be used for chemical separations and sensing technologies. Chemical selectivity will be manipulated in the polymers by incorporating targeted fuctional groups in the polymeric structure. The electroactive nature of the polymer provides a mechanism for external manipulation of the polymer's properties leading to a novel class of materials with tunable behavior. Ion selectivity for example, could be controlled by electrochemically switching a conducting polymer from its reduced, insulating state to an oxidized conducting form. The educational plan involves the development of new courses focusing on the properties of these types of materials and redesigning the undergraduate laboratory course to integrate this material into the laboratory curriculum.

该提案描述了一个综合研究和教育计划，研究用于化学分离和传感技术的电活性和导电聚合物的设计和合成。化学选择性将通过在聚合物结构中引入目标官能团来操纵聚合物。聚合物的电活性性质提供了一种外部操纵聚合物性质的机制，从而产生了一类具有可调行为的新型材料。 例如，离子选择性可以通过将导电聚合物从其还原的绝缘状态电化学转换为氧化的导电形式来控制。 教育计划涉及开发新课程，重点是这些类型的材料的属性和重新设计本科实验室课程，将这种材料融入实验室课程。
