524 Nanoscale Phenomena in Macromolecular Systems


Description:
This session is dedicated to investigations of the chemistry, structure, morphology, and properties of polymeric materials at the nanoscale. Assembly and structuring at the nanoscale can lead to enhanced or unusual properties, which might be leveraged in a variety of applications. Theoretical, computational, and experimental papers are welcome on polymeric interfacial properties as well as research investigating emerging technologies through the exploitation of polymeric interfacial phenomena. ***Note to faculty candidates: please include a note to the session chair during submission to alert them to your status*** +++Note: this session will be sorted jointly with Nanostructured Polymer Films and Polymer Thin Films and Interfaces. Authors may submit to either session.+++
