Solid state and solution state NMR techniques applied to polymer and material science problems

Most of the research in my group is related to solving analytical problems by analysis of complex samples. A primary tool is NMR spectroscopy (both on solid and liquid samples), although other analytical methodologies are also employed as needed. Applications include determining the composition, microstructure, and morphology of copolymer systems and applying chemometric techniques to spectroscopic data to accurately determine the composition of complex mixtures such as pharmaceutical formulations.
