The National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry awarded a $900,000 Project Grant to Stanford University from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2025. The grant supports research titled "Diverse Degradable Polymers from Versatile Ring-Opening Metathesis (CO)polymerization of Electron-Rich Cyclic Olefins" under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049).
This Project Grant will fund the development of new degradable polymer materials through ring-opening metathesis polymerization techniques. By utilizing electron-rich cyclic olefins as starting materials for copolymerization, the grantee aims to synthesize a diverse range of degradable polymers with tailored properties. This work aligns with the program's goals of advancing the mathematical and physical sciences through increasing fundamental scientific knowledge and understanding of major issues.
