Acquisition of Equipment for Polymer Research

这种静态/动态光散射系统将用于聚合物研究。它对该部门的许多研究领域至关重要，包括空气/蒸气界面的吸收动力学研究，表面上功能化聚合物的吸附，聚合物在凝胶中的运输，聚合物溶液的研究，以及聚电解质的局部构象等。这种能力将加强高分子材料在吸附、链构象、链传输和机械性能等领域的研究。

This static/dynamic light scattering system will be used for polymer studies. It is critically important to a number of research areas within the department including studies of the absorption dynamics of the air/vapor interface, adsorption of functionalized polymers on surfaces, polymer transport in gels, studies of inonmer solutions, and local conformations of polyelectrolytes, among many others. This capability will enhance ongoing polymer materials research in areas such as adsorption, chain conformation, chain transport, and mechanical properties.
