ABSTRACT:  Carbon nanotube (CNT)/polymer nanocomposites (CPNs) have recently drawn great interest for use in electronics, due to their superior properties such as tunable electrical conductivity, light weight, low cost, corrosion resistance, processability, etc. (compare with properties of currently used metals). In fact, the polymer matrix is insulative; however, incorporating a low content of conductive filler transforms it into conductive via forming a conductive network.

An invitation to all grad students, visitors, staff and faculty in Chemical Engineering (and their families).

It would be appreciated if you could bring a salad or dessert to the barbeque.
