Advanced polymer materials can enable more efficient and selective separations. We work to understand how fabrication methods and material properties impact performance, while considering commercial scalability and performance at environmental conditions. We integrate material design with performance characterization to develop robust materials for water treatment, resource recovery, and environmental remediation applications.
