The research activity will focus on the processing of two important classes of new polymer materials: polymer blends and polymer nanocomposites. Polymer blends are attractive to industry because they exhibit better properties than individual components and are less expensive than synthesizing a new polymer. Polymer nanocomposites consist of inorganic particles with dimensions in the nanoscale (1-100nm) like metal nanowires, clay nanoplatelets or carbon nanotubes, dispersed inside an organic polymer matrix. Polymer blends and nanocomposites have commercial importance in a large number of applications such as in electronics, automotive, aerospace, photovoltaics, biomedical, packaging, sensors, catalysis, fuel cells, and solar cells.

研究活动将集中于两种重要类别的新聚合物材料的处理：聚合物混合物和聚合物纳米复合材料。聚合物混合物对工业具有吸引力，因为它们表现出比单个组件更好的特性，并且比合成新聚合物的属性更便宜。聚合物纳米复合材料由纳米级（1-100nm）的无机颗粒组成，例如金属纳米线，粘土纳米片或碳纳米管，分散在有机聚合物基质内。聚合物混合物和纳米复合材料在大量应用中具有商业重要性，例如在电子，汽车，航空航天，光伏，生物医学，包装，传感器，催化，燃料电池和太阳能电池中。
