IMPROVED PROPERTIES BY CONTROL OF NANOMETRE AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF CROSSLINKED POLYMERS

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This French - Australian collaboration seeks to develop new composite, nanostructured thermosetting materials by control of molecular architecture and phase morphology, and by the incorporation of a range of nanoparticles into crosslinking systems. Such composites are increasingly required in high value industries such as electronics, aerospace and automotive. The project seeks to extend and develop the current successful and productive interaction between the researchers. As well as producing nanomaterials, the participants have extensive, complementary expertise in characterization at the molecular and nanoscale - crucial if the behaviour of these new materials is to be understood, controlled and further new materials rationally designed.
