Novel Surface Active Polymers Using Biocatalysis: NSF I/UCRC COLUMBIA/PINY Tie Project

这是纽约理工大学大分子生物催化和生物加工工业/大学合作研究中心与纽约哥伦比亚大学I/UCRC新型表面活性剂高级研究中心之间的一个合作项目。研究项目包括：(1)通过选择性生物催化转化从可再生资源合成新的功能聚合物；(2)研究聚合物结构、表面和界面上的吸附和构象特征之间的基本关系。在理工大学合成的聚合物和共聚物的表面和界面性质将在哥伦比亚大学的I/UCRC进行研究。一个同伴奖（EEC-0124037）将支持哥伦比亚大学的研究。

This is a tie project between the Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Biocatalysis and Bioprocessing of Macromolecules at the Polytechnic University of New York, and the I/UCRC for Advanced Studies on Novel Surfactants at Columbia University, New York. The research program includes (1) synthesis of new functional polymers from renewable resources by selective biocatalytic transformations, and (2) investigation of fundamental relationships between the polymer structures, adsorption and conformational characteristics at surfaces and interfaces. Surface and interfacial properties of the polymers and copolymers synthesized at the Polytechnic University will be studied at the I/UCRC at Columbia University. A companion award (EEC-0124037) will support the research at the Columbia University.
