Hyper Nano 2008
May 26th, 2008 - May 28th, 2008
an ESF Exploratory Workshop on
Hyperbranched polymers as novel materials for nanoscale applications : insight from experiment, theory and simulations
under the auspices of the European Polymer Federation
Scope and objectives of the workshop
The central goal of the proposed workshop is twofold:
- to bring together scientists from different disciplines and diverse backgrounds in contact, in order to establish an active network among researchers in this field
- to discuss the perspectives and the main challenges at the forefronts of each discipline concerning the behavior of hyperbranched polymers, allowing an exchange of ideas and expertise toward a coordinated and collaborative approach of the existing problems.
Topics
- New hyperbranched materials : controlled synthesis and characterization
- Role of topology and microstructural details to physical properties
- Recent developments in the theoretical description and simulational models for hyperbranched systems
- Novel applications of hyperbranched molecules: problems and perspectives
Event location: Fodele, Crete, Greece
