SYNOPSIS

Supports basic research and education on polymeric materials.  The program portfolio is mainly experimental and highly diverse with components of materials science, chemistry, physics, and related disciplines.  Polymers are studied across the nano-to-macro continuum through fundamental materials-focused scientific approaches.  Areas addressed include synthesis, molecular assembly, characterization, phase behavior, structure, morphology, and properties.  Particular focus is on new materials or materials with novel and/or superior properties, as well as on fundamental understanding of structure-property relationships.  Proposals of high potential impact for research and education in the above areas are welcome.
