Two activities on polymers.  Some information that might be useful in curriculum modules.

 

Started in 1994, the Princeton Center for Complex Materials (PCCM) is an NSF-funded Materials Science and Research Center (MRSEC) at Princeton University dedicated to pushing the frontiers of complexity in materials science. PCCM brings together over thirty faculty from six departments in the natural sciences and engineering, and is centered in Bowen Hall at the eastern entrance to campus. PCCM currently has three Interdisciplinary Research Groups (IRGs) and several seed projects:

IRG 1:     Interplay Of Magnetism And Transport In Correlated Electronic Materials

IRG 2:     Guided Self-Assembly

IRG 3:     Adhesion, Deformation And Transport At Contacts In Small Structures
