imidisation SMI nanoparticles surface properties

Project description

This project aims for a better understanding of the chemistry and physics at the nano level of SMI nanoparticles, which are created by imidisation of copolymer styrene-maleic anhydride (SMA). The main aspect is to broaden insight into the physical characteristics of the nanoparticles such as shape, size and uniformity. Interaction with minerals and substances from renewable sources is another focus
