项目摘要

This Growing Convergence Research proposal describes fundamental, high-impact studies that can enhance understanding of, and provide solutions to, the major challenges associated with the use of biomass toward generating designer polymer systems. The proposed efforts are unique as they address the physical science, engineering, geoscience, and toxicology impacts of advanced materials life cycle management through the convergence of multiple disciplines, including: ecohydrology, catalytic science (experimental - synthetic and biological, and computational), polymer chemistry, macromolecular science, biomolecular engineering, and animal and food science, to spawn a new overarching discipline around Materials Life Cycle Management.To enable the development of viable routes to sustainable biobased materials generation, the team will explore the following basic science topics: (i) synthetic (catalytic) approaches to the deconstruction of biomass; (ii) enzymatic routes to the selective and 'programmable' incorporation of functional groups to polymer precursors; (iii) structure/property relationships in soft materials, linking feedstock and depolymerization routes to polymer properties; (iv) processing protocols to generate multi-component interpenetrating networks (IPNs); (v) assays to determine structure/activity relationships that predict [macro]molecular toxicity applicable to biobased materials; and, (vi) routes to non-invasively assess lignin composition in trees/plants through dissolved organic carbon chemistry and stemflow analysis. By working on these topics, the research team plans to establish a fundamental and translatable roadmap that links environmental factors and biodiversity -to- catalysis -to- macromolecular materials chemistry and polymer design/characterization/processing -to- molecular toxicity.This project is jointly funded by the Growing Convergence Research program , the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR), and Engineering Directorate.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这项越来越多的收敛研究建议描述了基本的高影响研究，可以增强对与使用生物质在生成设计师聚合物系统相关的主要挑战，并为解决方案提供解决方案。拟议的努力是独一无二的，因为它们通过通过多个学科的融合来解决高级材料生命周期管理对物理科学，工程，地球科学和毒理学的影响，包括：生态水文，催化科学（实验 - 合成和生物学和计算），Polymer，Polymer化学，大分子科学，生物分子工程以及动物和食品科学，以产生围绕材料生命周期管理的新的总体学科。为了使可持续生物基材料生成的可行途径开发，该团队将探索以下基础科学主题： i）生物量解构的合成（催化）方法；（ii）将官能团与聚合物前体的选择性和“可编程”结合到聚合物前体的酶促路线；（iii）软材料中的结构/性质关系，将原料和解聚途径连接到聚合物性能；（iv）处理协议以生成多组件互穿网络（IPNS）；（v）确定预测适用于生物基材料的[宏]分子毒性的结构/活动关系的测定；（vi）通过溶解的有机碳化学和干液分析来评估树/植物中木质素组成的途径。通过研究这些主题，研究小组计划建立一个基本且可翻译的路线图，该路线图将环境因素和生物多样性 - 到催化 - 到 - 大分子材料化学和聚合物设计/特征/处理/处理 - 到分子毒性。由不断增长的研究计划资助，旨在刺激竞争研究的既定计划（EPSCOR）和工程局。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛影响的评估评估标准来通过评估来支持的。
