2014 - Fellow of the Materials Research Society

Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Polymer
  • Composite material
  • Thermodynamics

Her main research concerns Nanotechnology, Polymer, Copolymer, Nanocomposite and Composite material. Her Nanotechnology research includes themes of Biophysics, Polymer network and Lipid bilayer. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Volume fraction, Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction, Thermodynamics and Phase.

Her study in Copolymer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Chemical physics, Mesophase, Polymer chemistry, Stereochemistry and Chemical engineering. The various areas that she examines in her Nanocomposite study include Nanoparticle, Nanoscopic scale, Phase diagram and Molecular dynamics. Her Polymer clay, Composite number, Micromechanics and Plastic materials study, which is part of a larger body of work in Composite material, is frequently linked to Brownian dynamics, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Her most cited work include:

  • Nanoparticle Polymer Composites: Where Two Small Worlds Meet (1916 citations)
  • Self-directed self-assembly of nanoparticle/copolymer mixtures (782 citations)
  • Predicting the Mesophases of Copolymer-Nanoparticle Composites (562 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Anna C. Balazs spends much of her time researching Nanotechnology, Polymer, Chemical physics, Chemical engineering and Composite material. Nanoparticle, Microfluidics, Nanoscopic scale, Nanocomposite and Self-assembly are the primary areas of interest in her Nanotechnology study. Her Polymer research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Layer, Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction, Swelling and Polymer chemistry.

Anna C. Balazs interconnects Polymerization and Monomer in the investigation of issues within Polymer chemistry. As part of her studies on Chemical engineering, Anna C. Balazs often connects relevant subjects like Copolymer. The study incorporates disciplines such as Stereochemistry and Adsorption in addition to Copolymer.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Nanotechnology (30.25%)
  • Polymer (30.25%)
  • Chemical physics (15.92%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Polymer (30.25%)
  • Nanotechnology (30.25%)
  • Composite material (13.85%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Polymer, Nanotechnology, Composite material, Chemical engineering and Mechanics. Her study looks at the relationship between Polymer and topics such as Polymer chemistry, which overlap with Amphiphile and Copolymer. Her Nanotechnology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Vesicle and Self-organization.

Her work on Composite number, Thermo responsive and Ultimate tensile strength as part of general Composite material study is frequently connected to Control reconfiguration, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. Her Chemical engineering study incorporates themes from Self-assembly and Dissipative particle dynamics. She has included themes like Torsion, Colloidal crystal and Hybrid material in her Nanoparticle study.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Stimuli-responsive behavior of composites integrating thermo-responsive gels with photo-responsive fibers (63 citations)
  • Living Additive Manufacturing: Transformation of Parent Gels into Diversely Functionalized Daughter Gels Made Possible by Visible Light Photoredox Catalysis (52 citations)
  • Convective flow reversal in self-powered enzyme micropumps (38 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Polymer
  • Composite material
  • Thermodynamics

Anna C. Balazs mostly deals with Nanotechnology, Microfluidics, Radical polymerization, Polymer and Polymer chemistry. Anna C. Balazs works on Nanotechnology which deals in particular with Nanoparticle. Her work carried out in the field of Microfluidics brings together such families of science as Reagent, Buoyancy, Microchannel, Biological system and Fluid dynamics.

The concepts of her Radical polymerization study are interwoven with issues in Amphiphile, Chemical engineering and Atom-transfer radical-polymerization. Much of her study explores Polymer relationship to Thermal. The Polymer chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Copolymer, Polymerization and Monomer.
