Cooperative Interactions Between Functionalized Particles and Binders in Polymer Composites and Their Effect on Chemical Transport

Abstract

The overall objective of this collaboration is to investigate chemical transport in polymer composites with varying particle-binder interactions to develop a deep understanding of impact of these interactions on chemical transport. The recent development of a new technique by the TAMU PI, in situ pressure-contact Fourier transform infrared attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) spectroscopy, and its demonstration of measuring diffusion of a small molecule liquid in a free-standing crosslinked polymer coating enables this investigation. In collaboration with ECBC, TAMU PI proposes to (1) select, (2) synthesize, and (3) measure and model chemical transport in a variety of polymer composite systems (i.e., polymer-particle systems).
