The National Science Foundation awarded Cornell University a $600,000 project grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to support the development of user-friendly controlled cationic polymerizations under ambient conditions from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2025. The grant funding will enable Cornell researchers to advance scientific understanding of major problems in polymer chemistry by developing new techniques for ambient temperature synthesis of cationic polymers. Through controlled cationic polymerizations at room temperature, the university aims to make these complex chemical processes more accessible to researchers, supporting progress across the scientific enterprise. The Office of Sponsored Programs at Cornell University will oversee delivery of the technical objectives under the federal award.
