Prof. Dr. Sabine Ludwigs
Head of Chair of Structure and Properties of Polymeric Materials, Institute of Polymer Chemistry, University of Stuttgart
Participating in the following Rounds:
Structure and Properties of Functional Polymeric Materials
In our interdisciplinary and international research team of polymer chemists, physical chemists and materials scientists we are developing functional and intelligent polymer materials and devices.
One of the main aims is to control and manipulate structure-property relationships of hierarchical architectures from the molecular via the nanoscopic to the macroscopic device level.
Functionalities include:
- redox-activity for electrochemical sensors and electrocatalysis
- optical and electronic properties for polymer (opto)electronics
- stimuli-responsive behavior applicable as intelligent skin for controlled drug release in pharmaceutical applications and as actuators and sensors for soft robotics applications
