Jim
Andrews and Tom Oder from Physics and Doug Price from Chemical
Engineering are the facilitators for YSU's affiliation with CLiPS: The Center for
Layered Polymeric Systems, a new NSF Science and Technology
Center.
Led by researchers at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, the
$19 million center focuses on layered polymers — combining thin layers
of plastic or other synthetic materials to create products ranging from
packaging materials to optical switches.
At YSU, the academic collaboration
will include work in polymer physics
and polymer engineering within the physics and chemical engineering
programs. More...
