35th Discussion Group of Polymer Gels, Excellence Oral Presentation Award

This award is given by The Society of Polymer Science, Japan to researchers who have made oral presentations at Discussion Group of Polymer Gels, for their excellent presentations.

 

About awarded research

Mitsuki Nagaura, Naoyuki Sakumichi, and Takamasa Sakai

"Time-Temperature superposition law for viscoelasticity in gels with homogeneous network structure."

Using a gel with a very uniform and controllable structure, we aimed to clarify the viscoelasticity law during the gelation process. The experimental result showed that time-Temperature superposition law holds for gels, and the shift factor is found to be independent of the network structure.

 

Your impression & future plan

I am very honored to receive this award. I hope to continue to make great progress in the physics of gels.
