Specialty Polymer Fibre : Fabrication and Applications

November 18 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Abstract: This talk will cover the research on the fabrication and application of novel polymer fibres in my lab. Applying the fibre drawing technique to unusual materials or combinations of materials opens up a range of new applications. Examples that will be discussed include drawing arrays of metal filaments in a dielectric to make metamaterials and drawing very low Young’s modulus polymers for wearable sensors.
