报告摘要:

The main challenges to commercial implementation of many nanotechnology-inspired products are the lack of robust approaches to disperse, assemble, and decorate nanoparticles for specific targeted applications. To achieve desirable multi-functional properties, it is necessary that we successfully manipulate nanoparticles dispersion and assembly without compromising intrinsic nanoparticle properties and their intended purposes. In this talk, several examples of novel approaches to achieve the above objectives with desired functionalities and mechanical properties are presented. These examples include dispersion and assembly of zinc oxide quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, and synthetic clay for improved strength, toughness, barrier and optoelectronic properties. Fundamental principles responsible for manipulation of nanoparticle dispersion and assembly are described. Usefulness of the above research for functional and structural applications, especially on barrier properties, is also discussed.

报告人简介:

Dr. H.-J. Sue is a Full Professor and teaches at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Texas A&M University (TAMU). Before joining TAMU, Dr. Sue was employed by Dow Chemical during 1988-1995. He has focused most of his research work on fundamental understanding of structure-property relationship of polymeric materials. His recent research interests include (1) fracture behavior of thin-film polymers, (2) micro- and nano-scratch behavior of polymers, and (3) preparation of nanomaterials for nanotechnology applications. Dr. Sue is currently the Director of the Polymer Technology Center at TAMU and a holder of Texas Engineering Experimental Station Professorship.
