Summer 2018 – Polyelectrolyte Complexes and their Application in Nanofibers and Anticorrosion Coatings

Affiliations:
Project Leader: Hanna Hlushko
hanna.hlushko@tamu.edu
Materials Science & Engineering
Faculty Mentor: Dr. Svetlana Sukhishvili, Ph.D.
Meeting Times:
TBD
Team Size:
3 (Team Full)
Open Spots: 0
Special Opportunities:
Productive work for a couple of semesters may result in attending of hte conference or co-authorship in a publication
Team Needs:
Basic knowledge of chemistry, polymer chemistry, ability to work in a team, responsibility, initiative
Description:
This project will include work with different polymers which can form polyelectrolyte complexes. We will build polymer coatings using spin-coating and dip-coating methods to create thin polymer films on different substrates and test their physical and anticorrosion properties. The work will also include substrate preparation, and use of different techniques, such as ellipsometry, contact angle machine, benchtop AFM, UV-vis spectrophotometry, etc. This project mainly includes work in the lab. The location of the lab is in GERB building (West campus).
