Travel Support for Scientists to Participate in ACS Symposium
Abstract
In the last five years, there has been no ACS-sponsored symposium specifically focusing on the synthesis and application of functional polymers with sophisticated branched structures. This situation is in sharp contrast to the steady increase in the number of new research publications produced in this field over the past decade. The purpose of this project is to organize a symposium, "Advance in Functional Polymers with Sophisticated Branched Structures," at the Fall 2016 National Meeting of the American Chemical Society (to be held in Philadelphia, PA from August 21-25, 2016). This symposium will cover the latest advances on the synthesis and application of functional polymers with sophisticated nanostructures, including star polymers, graft polymers, molecular brushes, dendrimers, (hyper) branched polymers and various branched polymer structures constructed from supramolecular assemblies, for the interests of both academic and industrial scientists. The topics will include new structure design, polymerization methods, chemical modification and functionalization, structure-property relationship, as well as new concepts in characterization and applications.
