Complex fabrication procedures and heterogeneous components contribute to the varied microstructures of PBX materials, including voids or pores, cracks, material interfaces, and micro-strains.

The identification of the mass, morphology and molecular structure of polymeric materials (both synthetic and natural) is termed polymer characterization. These polymers are made up of chains of ...

In this interview Professor Harald Pasch talks about The Importance of a Field-Flow Fractionation System When Characterising Polymer Self-Assemblies. For the benefit of our readers could you explain ...

Polymers are materials composed of repeated chains of molecules. Both natural and synthetic polymers possess many important properties that are influenced by the conformation and composition of ...

One of the specific thrusts of the UAB Chemistry Department is in the area of materials research. Generally, we have classified these materials into organic (polymer) and inorganic materials. We have ...
