项目摘要

The storage and release of elastic strain energy in materials, along with mechanical strength, play important roles in both natural and engineered mechanical actuation systems, such as biological tissues responsible for the fast and high-powered locomotions in animals. The modulus of resilience provides the measure of a material?s ability to absorb and release elastic strain energy, determined by the ratio between strength and stiffness of these materials. In general, engineering the modulus of resilience is extremely difficult because it requires asymmetrically increasing strength and stiffness against their mutual scaling behavior. As an alternative route, this award supports fundamental research to elucidate how nanoparticles can be used to tune mechanical behaviors of their polymer composites for simultaneously achieving high strength and low stiffness. This knowledge will accelerate the design of high strength, yet compliant polymeric materials for a broad range of applications, such as light-weight elastic energy storage devices, protective coatings, flexible and foldable optoelectronics, and artificial muscles. Thus, this research will not only promote the progress of science, but also advance the national health, prosperity and welfare. It can also help to secure national defense through technological innovations, e.g. light-weight energy absorption and protection systems for aircrafts. By integrating multiple disciplines, this project will train a diverse group of students in the areas of mechanics of materials, polymer science, mechanical engineering, and material science and engineering for next-generation workforce development. The educational objectives of the project will be realized through curriculum development, undergraduate research opportunities, summer research program for high school students, research experience for K-12 teachers program, and K-12 outreach program. Special efforts will be made to involve underrepresented students in this project. The objective of this project is to test the hypothesis that the combination of high strength and low stiffness is attributed to the unique microstructure of polymer nanocomposites that contains spherical nanoparticles weakly interacting with soft polymer matrix. To achieve this objective, the research plan consists of two major aims. The goal of Aim 1 is to establish a research framework integrating multiscale molecular modeling and complementary nanomechanical experiments for studying polymer nanocomposites with high strength and low stiffness. It will be used to elucidate how the size of nanoparticles, in comparison with free volume elements of the polymer matrix, can influence mechanical behaviors of polymer nanocomposites. In Aim 2, the underpinning mechanics principle of attaining the combination of high strength and low stiffness will be generalized to guide exploration of a novel class of polymer nanocomposites. These nanocomposites with ultra-high elastic energy storage capability can be used for superior mechanical protection, artificial muscles, soft robotics and flexible electronics. The interdisciplinary effort will open promising avenues for quantitatively understanding the anomalous high strength and low stiffness behaviors, and offer mechanistic insights into the design principles of a novel class of nanocomposites.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
材料中弹性应变能的储存和释放,沿着机械强度,在自然和工程机械致动系统中都起着重要作用,例如负责动物快速和高功率运动的生物组织。弹性模量提供了一种材料的度量?吸收和释放弹性应变能的能力,由这些材料的强度和刚度之间的比率决定。一般来说,工程弹性模量是非常困难的,因为它需要不对称地增加强度和刚度,以对抗它们的相互缩放行为。作为一种替代途径,该奖项支持基础研究,以阐明纳米颗粒如何用于调整其聚合物复合材料的机械行为,以同时实现高强度和低刚度。这些知识将加速高强度,但顺应性聚合物材料的设计,用于广泛的应用,如重量轻的弹性储能装置,保护涂层,柔性和可折叠的光电子器件和人工肌肉。因此,这项研究不仅将促进科学的进步,而且将促进国家的健康,繁荣和福利。它还可以通过技术创新来帮助确保国防安全,例如轻型飞机的能量吸收和保护系统。通过整合多个学科,该项目将在材料力学,聚合物科学,机械工程和材料科学与工程领域培养多样化的学生,以促进下一代劳动力的发展。该项目的教育目标将通过课程开发,本科生研究机会,高中生暑期研究计划,K-12教师计划的研究经验和K-12外展计划来实现。将作出特别努力,让代表性不足的学生参与这一项目。该项目的目的是测试高强度和低刚度的组合归因于聚合物纳米复合材料的独特微观结构的假设,所述聚合物纳米复合材料包含与软聚合物基体弱相互作用的球形纳米颗粒。为了实现这一目标,研究计划包括两个主要目标。目标1的目标是建立一个研究框架,集成多尺度分子模拟和互补的纳米力学实验研究高强度和低刚度的聚合物纳米复合材料。它将被用来阐明纳米粒子的大小,与聚合物基体的自由体积元素相比,可以影响聚合物纳米复合材料的力学行为。在目标2中,实现高强度和低刚度的组合的基础力学原理将被推广,以指导一类新型聚合物纳米复合材料的探索。这些具有超高弹性储能能力的纳米复合材料可用于上级机械保护、人造肌肉、软机器人和柔性电子产品。跨学科的努力将打开有前途的途径,定量地了解异常的高强度和低刚度的行为,并提供了一个新的一类纳米复合材料的设计原理的机械见解。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。
