Material Chemistry
Chemistry is evolving into an academic discipline that includes techniques for creating new substances as well as investigations into the background and properties of a substance’ s molecules and its unique functions. The research and education provided by the Department of Material Chemistry focuses on inorganic, organic, polymeric, and nanomaterials. The goals are to chemically design materials with novel functions and properties while investigating their structure, properties, and reactivity at the molecular and nano levels as well as establishing the methods for creating these materials. To promote the development of novel functional materials based on integrated science, the department participates in intra-and extradepartmental research exchanges and is developing the framework for more cooperative research.
