This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $300,000 in funding to support a collaborative research project between researchers at the Stevens Institute of Technology and Oklahoma State University. The goal of the project is to study the motion of ions in mixtures of ionic liquids and polymers, known as ionogels, using a combination of experimental techniques (neutron spectroscopy, dielectric spectroscopy) and computational modeling. The researchers aim to link the interactions between the polymers and ionic liquids to the resulting ion distribution and transport properties within the ionogels. This fundamental research could inform the development of applications in areas like ionotronics, sensors, and biomedical devices that require strength, conductivity, and flexibility. The project will also provide research opportunities for graduate students and outreach activities to promote STEM education.
