Impact of Non-Covalent Interactions on Soft Matter Structure-Property Behavior: From Macro to the Single Molecule
Ann Fornof (3M)
Design of materials through the hierarchy of length scales from bulk to nanometer to molecular level is a holy grail of polymer science, as utilization of this range of scales is seen in settings as disparate as natural materials to those used in the fabrication of microprocessor chips. My research aims to elucidate, and subsequently manipulate, behavior at these levels to afford unique materials properties through a focus on structure-property relationships of polymers. In this talk, I will discuss the interplay of non-covalent interactions and their influence on polymeric behavior and give examples of systems in the bulk, nanoscale and single molecule level.
