Polymer materials and coatings
While often innoculous, polymers materials and coatings are everywhere. These materials are often described by the chemical components, but their function arises from assembly and structure across multiple length scales from the molecular, mesoscopic, millimeter, to macroscopic.
The research at PCC focuses on designing the molecular structure to elicit a macroscopic response, while also understanding how that reponse manifests across multiple length scales. We employ both synthetic and computation techniques to bridge these length scales.
