Ionic Liquids for Advanced Materials

Abstract

Multidisciplinary research has served as the cornerstone of the first year ILEAD MURI programs leading to working collaborations among scientists and engineers with graduate student exchanges, real-time feedback, and multidisciplinary peer-reviewed publications. The MURI research team is organized according to interdisciplinary and integrative fundamental questions of science and engineering, and the grand challenges serve to assemble researchers from diverse disciplines. Unprecedented charged polymer compositions have been prepared with attention to the correlation of charge density and chemical composition with morphological structure in both the solution and solid state. Scattering studies have revealed the importance of charge location on structure at the nanoscale and the correlation of structure with membrane performance.
