Abstract:

The purpose of this grant was to purchase equipment focused on polymer physical property determination, including ultraviolet and near IR spectrometers, two permanent magnet NMRs, a Differential Scanning Calorimeter, an accompanying Thermal Gravimetric Analyzer, and a High Performance Liquid Chromatography system. This equipment would then be used introduce polymer science across the undergraduate curriculum. This new instrumentation will strengthen and enhance our current research projects, open up new cross collaborations with our engineering studies and physics faculty, and offer students a multitude of new polymer science based senior thesis projects. The equipment purchased from this project is currently being used to implement a polymer focused curriculum throughout our undergraduate curriculum.
