Travel Support for an ACS PMSE Symposium Entitled "Hairy Particles: Theory, Synthesis, Behavior, and Applications", September 8-12, 2013, Indianapolis, IN

本提案要求资助参加2013年9月8-12日在ACS全国会议上举行的“毛状粒子：理论、合成、行为和应用”研讨会的参与者的国内旅行。毛状颗粒由无机、金属或聚合物的核心和一端通过共价键在核心表面密集接枝的聚合物链层（即聚合物刷）组成。毛状颗粒的各种潜在应用范围从先进的复合材料到催化和传感。组织者（教授）。Zhao,Zhu,Li)带来了与研讨会主题相关的高分子化学和高分子物理方面的广泛专业知识。

This proposal requests funding in support of the domestic travel of participants to a symposium: "Hairy Particles: Theory, Synthesis, Behavior, and Applications", to be held at the ACS National Meeting Sept 8-12, 2013. Hairy particles are composed of a core, either inorganic, metallic, or polymeric, and a layer of polymer chains densely grafted by one end via a covalent bond on the surface of the core (i.e. polymer brushes). The diverse potential applications of the hairy particles range from advanced composites to catalysis and sensing. The organizers (Profs. Zhao,Zhu,Li) bring a broad range of expertise in polymer chemistry and polymer physics pertinent to the symposium topic.
