Polymer Characterization Seminar

Advances in polymer science are driving increased use of polymers across a wide range of industries and applications. These components are critical for improving processing, stability, and durability, but they also introduce significant challenges for chemical and physical characterization. Continued innovation in polymer formulations and materials development requires robust analytical tools to characterize molecular weight distributions, branching, additive composition, and relationships between polymer structure and material properties.
