Finally, when used in a widely used in many fields due to their unique properties complete feedback-control-loop at the industrial reactor such as tensile strength and viscoelastic behavior under level, significant improvement in product quality can be deformation. With more stringent demands on the quality expected, as well as savings of non-renewable resources, of polymer products and pressure to reduce cost in energy, reactor and personnel time. Creating an effective production and processing, the need for fast, accurate and NIR implementation strategy depends on the type of reliable monitoring methods is greater than ever. polymerization process, the properties of interest, and measurement conditions. Analytical methods, which require time-consuming and intensive sample preparation, are difficult to implement Polymerization Processes effectively in a process or quality control environment, NIR spectroscopy can be used for bulk, solution, emulsion and waste precious time and materials. Efficient process and suspension polymerization monitoring, providing control demands a measurement technique which is information on copolymer composition and distribution, rapid, requires little or no sample preparation and minimal monomer conversion, molecular weight averages, average technical expertise. It should be reliable, rugged and easily particle sizes and more. automated. Bulk polymerization Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy meets those needs by In bulk polymerization, the reaction is carried out in the being both rapid and precise. -

Materials Science
Materials Science Materials Science is an interdisciplinary field combining physics (fundamental laws of nature), chemistry (interactions of atoms) and biology (how life interacts with materials) to elucidate the inherent properties of basic and complex systems. This includes optical (interaction with light), electrical (interaction with charge), magnetic and structural properties of everyday electronics, clothing and architecture. The Materials Science central dogma follows the sequence: Structure—Properties—Design—Performance. This involves relating the nanostructure of a material to its macroscale physical and chemical properties. By understanding and then changing the structure, material scientists can create custom materials with unique properties. The goal of the materials science minor is to create a cross-disciplinary approach to fundamental topics in basic and applied physical sciences. Students will gain experience and perspectives from the disciplines of chemistry, physics and biology. The minor places a strong emphasis on current nanoscale research methods in addition to the basics of electronic, optical and mechanical properties of materials. Any student with an interest in pursuing the cross-disciplinary minor in materials science should consult with the coordinator of the minor. Students are encouraged to declare their participation in their sophomore year but no later than the end of the junior year. Students also should seek an adviser from participating faculty.
