项目摘要

*** 9414803 Barth West Chester University of Pennsylvania is the recipient of ARI funds for the renovation of research space on the second floor of the science center to create an interdisciplinary Material Research Center (MRC). This project will enable six faculty members to consolidate and enhance the focus of their materials research and training activities. Research is presently conducted in cramped locations dispersed throughout the Chemistry department. Laboratories are subjected to dust, flooding, and lack adequate temperature and humidity control, creating an unsafe working environment. Utilities systems such as the HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection will be upgraded and installed to meet current codes. Once renovations are completed, the MRC will consists of six faculty/student research laboratories surrounding two centrally located service laboratories that will contain spaces for instrumentation, sample preparation, thermal treatment, and glass blowing, and equipment fabrications. The centralization of research activities, and the provision for shared spaces, will promote better interaction among faculty and students involved in materials research, and provide a more concerted interdisciplinary approach to the study of materials science. Efficient and improved space will provide students with more research opportunities and will enhance the productivity of faculty.***

*** 9414803宾夕法尼亚州巴斯西切斯特大学（University of Pennsylvania）是ARI资金的获得者，用于在科学中心二楼进行研究空间的翻新，以创建一个跨学科材料研究中心（MRC）。该项目将使六位教职员工能够巩固和增强其材料研究和培训活动的重点。目前在整个化学部门分散的狭窄位置进行了研究。实验室会受到灰尘，洪水的影响，并且缺乏适当的温度和湿度控制，从而创造了不安全的工作环境。诸如HVAC，电气，管道和防火保护等公用事业系统将升级并安装以满足当前代码。翻新完成后，MRC将由六个教职员工/学生研究实验室组成，这些实验室围绕两个位于中央的服务实验室，其中将包含用于仪器，样品制备，热水处理，玻璃吹气以及设备制造的空间。研究活动的集中化以及共享空间的规定将促进教师和参与材料研究的学生之间的更好互动，并为材料科学研究提供了更加协调一致的跨学科方法。高效，改善的空间将为学生提供更多的研究机会，并将提高教师的生产力。***
