Program:

Engage Grants for Universities

Program Purpose:

In this project the University of British Columbia (polymer rheology group) will work with Global SynChem tox000D
work towards carboxylated polystyrene encapsulated quantum dot solutions as the final product.x000D
Poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) polymer will be synthesized with optimum and well controlled properties to coatx000D
these quantum dots and make them hydrophilic. In the process, we will address the complications present inx000D
this synthesis and improve on the current system.
