Polymer Interphases
Challenging environments, complex materials, and the thin boundary that decides it all.
The research group “Polymer Interfaces” investigates molecular interactions at electrolyte-solid boundaries, bridging experiment, surface technology, and simulation.
Our research is focused on four major topics.
Polymer fouling
Analysis of fouling processes in aqueous environments during polymer synthesis in reactors.
Polymeric adhesive layers in maritime environment
From bonding to release: uncovering how metal/adhesive interfaces behave in sea water environment.
Glass fibers in polymer matrices
Investigating interfacial interactions between glass fibers and polymer matrices to enhance composite performance and durability.
