Thermodynamics and Transport Properties (01a)

#265 - Thermodynamics of Polymers II (01A13)
This session focuses on thermodynamic phenomena of polymer systems such as solutions, blends, block and random copolymers, polymers with complex architectures, networks, gels, charged polymers, etc. Experimental, theoretical, and molecular-based simulation contributions are considered.
