DYNamics of Architecturally COmplex Polymers (DYNACOP)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2013,

"The scientific objective of DYNACOP is to obtain a fundamental understanding of the flow behaviour and the dynamics of blends of topologically complex macromolecular fluids and their role in processing and properties of blends. These materials exhibit complex dynamics and rheology and, in many cases, show hierarchical relaxation over many different timescales. This in turn affects the processin ...

Dynamics of Soft Metallo-Supramolecular Materials from Entangled Macromolecular Precursors (SUPRA-DYN)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

"Our project deals with the class of supramolecular systems coined “metallo-supramolecular polymers”, which offer several advantages compared to their covalent counterparts, e.g. a “self-healing” mechanism due to the reversibility of the supramolecular bond. The specific systems based on metallo-terpyridine complexes binding covalent macromolecular precursors, which have been developed at Universi ...

Multi-scale modelling of interfacial phenomena in acrylic adhesives undergoing deformation (MODIFY)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2012,

"In soft nanostructured materials containing polymers (such as acrylic adhesives), interfaces pose specific challenges since they are usually diffuse and can transfer stress through chain entanglements. The equilibrium structure of soft polymer interfaces is well-known, but their mechanical strength remains poorly understood. Yet many new nanostructured materials contain internal interfaces and im ...
