Laboratory Introduction
The polymer hybrid materials lab is exploring the processing-morphology-property relationship of polymers to create new materials with tailored properties. The control of interfacial property is the key for success.
Research Areas
- Multiphase polymer systems
- Transparent polymers and their application
- Biodegradable polymers
Research Activities
- Development of transparant optical polymers with tailored refractive index and birefrigence for polarizing films
- Preparation of microcapsule containing photochromic dye for plastic smart window
- Development of scratch-resistanct polycarbonate by adding inorganic fillers or mixing another polymer
- Modification of biodegradable poly(L-lactide)
