Computer aided molecular design of multifunctional materials with controlled permeability properties

General Information

This project aims at an improved understanding and the knowledge-based design of multi-functional polymeric materials. The said materials combine controlled permeability to selected small molecules with various other properties needed to ensure processability, durability and multible end-uses. This aim is pursued by the development and extansive application of multiscale computer-aided material modelling and design methodology, complemented with computer-assisted evaluation of end-use performance of the materials in question. Simulation results will be validated against experimental data. Wherever possible, measures will be taken to demonstrate the applicability of design proposals in actual (commercial) product and process design.
