NSF support will be used to renovate the non-metallic materials laboratory facilities in Rogers Hall at Polytechnic University. Constructed in 1923, the space was last renovated in the mid 1950s, and the laboratories are ill-suited to the multi-million dollar research and research training program in polymeric materials, non-polymer materials and materials characterization. The materials research program involves faculty from the School of Chemical and Material Science (including the departments of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering and the Herman F. Mark Polymer Research Institute) and the Physics department. The multi-disciplinary nature of the research activity requires a well-designed physical layout of the laboratories. The funded renovation effort will reconfigure the laboratory space into an efficient arrangement and will allow for the consolidation of major research instrumentation and facilities. Material Characterization will be greatly improved by the consolidation and centralization of the X-ray laboratory, SEM, STEM, laser facilities, scanning tunneling microscope, light scattering facilities and spectroscopy facilities. In addition, all space will be substantially improved with the installation of a new HVAC system, new windows, and new fume hoods.

NSF支持将用于翻新理工大学罗杰斯音乐厅的非金属材料实验室设施。 该空间建于1923年，最后在1950年代中期进行了翻新，实验室不适合数百万美元的聚合物材料，非聚合物材料和材料表征的数百万美元的研究和研究培训计划。 材料研究计划涉及化学与材料科学学院（包括化学，化学工程，材料科学与工程系以及Herman F. Mark Polymer Research Institute）和物理系的教师。 研究活动的多学科性质需要实验室精心设计的物理布局。 资助的翻新工作将使实验室空间重新配置为有效的安排，并允许合并主要的研究工具和设施。通过X射线实验室，SEM，STEM，激光设施，扫描隧道显微镜，光散射设施和光谱设施的合并和集中化，将大大改善材料表征。此外，安装新的HVAC系统，新窗口和新的通风罩将大大改善所有空间。
