Dielectric spectroscopy and complementary techniques for molecular dynamic study of polymers and organic crystals

Objective

The proposed knowledge transfer aims to increase the competences of the researchers and PhD students at TUL in the field of broadband dielectric spectroscopy and their abilities to work with other complementary techniques, like dynamic mechanical analysis, computing techniques, low-frequency Raman spectroscopy, modulated DSC, which allow to study molecular relaxations and transitions in organic and polymer materials.

This should result in more effective use of the equipment available at TUL and give theoretical and methodological backgrounds for more deep interpretation of the experimental results. The objectives will be implemented by two ways: recruitment of external experienced researchers and training of own staff in partner organisations. The training visits at partner organisations will give an access to the most advanced experimental techniques used for investigations of molecular dynamics in polymers and organic crystals.

Characterisation of molecular dynamics in polymers is necessary for understanding the structure/properties relationships in modern materials such as semiconducting polymers for opto-electonic applications, nanogels, hyperbranched polymers, liquid crystals materials, which are currently investigated at TUL in a frame of European and national projects. Establishing of long-term co-operation with the scientific centres equipped with modern apparatus not accessible in Poland, and with the high experience staff will help in preparation and realisation of the common projects in the field of material engineering.
