Carnegie Mellon University was awarded a $225,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: POLAR-POLYOLEFIN BLOCK COPOLYMERS VIA MILRAD FUNCTIONALIZATION: A PLATFORM FOR AMPHIPHILIC NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIAL SYNTHESIS" under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA #47.049). The research aims to advance the synthesis of amphiphilic nanomaterials through functionalization of milrad radicals to create polar-polyolefin block copolymers. This work aligns with the program's goals of strengthening the nation's scientific enterprise through increased fundamental knowledge and understanding of major problems in the mathematical and physical sciences.
