Thermostable and transparent hybrid materials

12:45-13:25 Japanese

【Profile】

After getting Ph.D. from The University of Tokyo, he had worked for RCAST, and Graduate School of Engineering, The University of Tokyo, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Tokyo University of Science, then he has moved to the present University as the Department Chair, Vice Dean. He has been nominated as the Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, UK.

【Abstract】

Colorless and transparent materials with thermostability are one of the important materials for the development of flexible ICT devices. Polyimides are one of the thermostable materials with mechanical strrength but they are colored due to the existence of charge transfer. Therefore colorless transparent polyimides are obtained by the restriction of the charge transfer. Recently hybrid materials of these transparent polyimides and inorganic fillers have been developed to perform further functionality. From fundamentals of the molecular design to their applications will be lectured.

Material Informatics aware multi-scale modeling platform to predict properties of transparent clay/polymer nano composite

15:25-15:55

【Profile】

Ph. D. in Physico-analytical Chemistry from Burdwan University, INDIA in 1992. In the last decade, he has been working on materials from catalysis to battery to semiconductor to support material science R&D using molecular modeling and informatics in Asia Pacific. Before he joined Dassault Systemes, he had been doing materials science research in India, USA and Japan (Tohoku University, AIST).

【Abstract】

We are living in a material world, designing functional material is key. In absence of validated data for material one therefore need to perform high throughput simulation to generate good data to run data modeling to innovate new material. Classical and mesoscale simulations based on molecular structure can be used to predict key properties, including cohesion and wetting, mechanical behavior, diffusion, adhesion at surfaces and phase separation. Such simulations can be leveraged in finite element (FE) simulations through homogenization of the predicted material structure. A science aware material informatics platform will be showcased to explain he capability with focus on functionalized transparent clay/polymer nano composite material the key for sustainability.
