Applications of Atomic Force Microscopy in Polymer Research

Description

The symposium features a panel of experts who will describe the role of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) in their polymer research projects and share recent results.

Topics Discussed:

• Imaging dynamics and ordering in block copolymer tthin films with environmentally controlled AFM
• Accurate nanomechanical characterization of polymer materials and composites
• Nanostructure and deformation behavior of high performance fibers
