Welcome to the Photopolymer Laboratory in the Department of Polymer Science and Engineering at Pusan National University! Our research focuses on investigating molecular structure-property relationships and utilizing this knowledge to design and synthesize novel monomers and building blocks for the creation of advanced materials with tailored properties. We are particularly interested in utilizing light as a tool to synthesize advanced polymers and to modulate the properties of macromolecules.
