PSS Summary and Future Directions We think we understand monomer structure of a variety of PSS s conformers, isomers and can model these successfully. We can analyze mixtures quantitatively and identify impurities ur knowledge of PSS structures are helping to understand how PSS can interact at the molecular level and result in property enhancements. What is the future direction? Want to be able to use what we ve learned to understand how PSS is interacting in oligomers and polymers. We are working on higher oligomers of PMA as well as on polyimide polymers!
In conclusion Thanks for coming.
