2019 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Inverse Design of Soft Materials

The session invites broad contributions where theoretical, computational and experimental approaches are used to design soft materials such as macromolecules, colloids, and composite materials with targeted structure and/or properties. Inverse design approaches can include the modification of thermodynamic driving forces in a rational way, leading to desired changes in material structure and/or properties. Examples of driving forces are bulk interactions, interactions at the interface, or the rational design of mixtures/blends.
