Research Overview
Scientific studies at the department of polymeric materials include semicrystalline and glassy polymers, rubber materials, polymers based on renewable resources, polymer nanocomposites and polysaccharides. Scientific and engineering problems are approached by combined experimental and theoretical (e.g. MD simulation) methods.
