Polymers for Energy Storage and Generation

Energy demand has risen quickly to be one of the major challenges facing mankind. Polymeric materials are poised to play an important role in many different aspects of energy storage and generation such as capacitors, fuel cells, batteries, photovoltaics, and thermoelectrics. This session welcomes papers from a wide range of topics that generally involve the design, synthesis, characterization, processing, and application of polymeric materials in energy storage. ***Note to faculty candidates: please include a note to the session chair during submission to alert them to your status*** +++ Note that all submissions will be to part I and will be sorted APS style to improve the cohesiveness of the sessions +++
