Charged and Ion-Containing Polymers


Description:
Submissions are invited concerning preparation, properties, engineering fundamentals, simulation and modeling, and novel applications of macromolecules and polymeric materials that are charged or contain ionic species. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, ionic polymers and gels, biopolymers, and stimuli-responsive materials. ***Note to faculty candidates: please include a note to the session chair during submission to alert them to your status***
