Polymers with Desired properties 'on-command'

Passive and active feedback control of reactions using ACOMP (Automatic Continuous Online Monitoring of Polymerization reactions).

The ideal in polymer science is to have complete control and characterization of a polymer reaction in real-time. The following research strives to achieve this goal with online characterization and feedback control of certain reaction variables.

  • Online Monitoring of Molecular Weight and other Characteristics during Semi-batch Emulsion Polymerization under Monomer Starved and Flooded Conditions
  • Predictive Control of Average Composition and Molecular Weight Distributions in Semi-batch Free Radical Copolymerization Reactions
  • Predictive Control and Verification of Conversion Kinetics and Polymer Molecular Weight in Semi-batch Free Radical Homopolymer Reactions
