This award supports the purchase of a research grade thermogravimetric analysis system to facilitate undergraduate and MS level research and education. The research program for which this equipment is needed is based upon reverse microemulsion polymerization technology for formulating advanced nanocomposite polymers exhibiting fire resistance, effects of non-halogenated flame retardants on polymer flame stability, synthesis and thermal stability of novel benzotriazole-based step-growth polymers, thermal stability and curing of advanced coatings, and thermal analysis of reverse microemulsions for controlled combustion effects. This thermogravimetric analysis system is built around a research grade thermogravimetric analyzer and includes a quadrupole mass spectrometer and an evolved gas analyzer. This system will facilitate mechanistic studies of several projects ongoing in two of our Colleges, and will provide a thermal analysis center in our Coatings Research Institute that will be available to and shared with other investigators campus wide and used in our advanced undergraduate and M.S. polymers and coatings laboratory educational program. This initial work will contribute to the education and training of students in an institution heavily committed to the education and training of women and minorities.This award supports the purchase of a research grade thermogravimetric analysis system to facilitate undergraduate and MS level research and education. This system will allow us to study how various materials decompose as the materials are heated in air or in other gases. The results of these studies will provide advanced materials that have improved fire resistance properties and fuels that burn more cleanly. This new instrumentation system will help faculty and students in several projects ongoing in two of our Colleges and also in our Coatings Research Institute where we interface our research results with industry here in the southeastern Michigan area and nationwide. Our initial work using this instrumentation will contribute to the education and training of students in an institution heavily committed to the education and training of women and minorities

该奖项支持购买研究级热重分析系统，以促进本科生和硕士水平的研究和教育。该设备所需要的研究项目是基于反相微乳液聚合技术制备先进的耐燃纳米复合聚合物，非卤化阻燃剂对聚合物火焰稳定性的影响，新型苯并三唑基阶梯生长聚合物的合成和热稳定性，先进涂层的热稳定性和固化，以及反相微乳液的热分析以控制燃烧效果。这个热重分析系统是围绕一个研究级热重分析仪建立的，包括一个四极杆质谱仪和一个进化气体分析仪。该系统将促进我们两个学院正在进行的几个项目的机械研究，并将在我们的涂料研究所提供一个热分析中心，该中心将与校园内的其他研究人员共享，并用于我们的高级本科生和硕士聚合物和涂料实验室教育计划。这项初步工作将有助于在一个大力致力于妇女和少数民族教育和培训的机构内对学生进行教育和培训。该奖项支持购买研究级热重分析系统，以促进本科生和硕士水平的研究和教育。这个系统将使我们能够研究各种材料在空气或其他气体中加热时是如何分解的。这些研究的结果将提供具有更高耐火性能的先进材料和燃烧更清洁的燃料。这个新的仪器系统将帮助教师和学生在我们的两个学院以及我们的涂料研究所进行的几个项目中，我们将我们的研究成果与密歇根东南部地区和全国的工业联系起来。我们使用这种工具的初步工作将有助于在一个大力致力于妇女和少数民族教育和培训的机构中对学生进行教育和培训
