Investigation of the optical, thermal, and mechanical properties of a bulk polymer using the surface thermal lensing technique
… Lensing (STL) was employed to study the thermo-mechanical response of an amorphous polycarbonate as a bulk. A discussion is given of how previously developed theories did not fit well with the present work. Therefore, only qualitative analysis and discussion of the experimental results is made, …

Effect of chemical structure and crosslinking density on the thermo-mechanical properties and toughness of (meth)acrylate shape-memory polymer networks
… is to characterize and understand structure- mechanical property relationships in (meth)acrylate networks. The networks are synthesized from mono-functional (meth)acrylates with systematically varying sidegroup structure and multi-functional crosslinkers with varying mole fraction and …

Hydration Mechanisms in Sulfonated Polysulfones for Desalination Membrane Applications
This dissertation explores the properties of sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone)s for desalination membrane applications. A multi-scale approach is used to understand the relationships between the chemical structure of the polymer, the equilibrium water content, and the bulk properties. The …
