Session: Nanoscale Structure in Polymers I (2009 Annual Meeting)

Monday, November 9, 2009: 8:30 AM

Cheekwood C (Gaylord Opryland Hotel)

Description:

We seek papers dealing with interfacial phenomena in nanoscopic systems containing polymers. Experimental and theoretical contributions are welcomed. For this session, papers specifically dealing with self-organization of polymers at surfaces and interfaces are especially welcome.
