The Chung group studies the design and synthesis of application-oriented polymers using interdisciplinary concepts from biology, materials science, organic chemistry, and chemical engineering. Our research includes development of new stimulus sensitive functional adhesives, sustainable smart materials, and novel catalysts. Each research topic seeks to answer fundamental questions in polymer chemistry and utilize this insight to solve real-world issues. There are many recent updates on our research.
