Objectives

 

General objectives: 

- Promoting Romanian research in accordance with the most recent European and international trends by improving the quality and valorization of research results;  
- Participation of research team members in European projects like FP7, training specialists with a high level of competence;
- Developing the field concerning methods and technologies based on natural resources with a view to achieve new intelligent polymeric materials which provides progress in the advanced materials area


Specific Objectives:

- Exploring the possibilities to obtain intelligent multi-stimuli responsive polymeric materials having various architectures varying with environmental conditions, degradable and based especially on renewable resources;
- Obtaining by original procedures (chemical or physical) of new multi-stimuli responsive structures and architectures combining the features of natural and synthetic polymers, each of them being sensitive to a certain stimulus;
- Assessment of multi-stimuli responsive character, of non-toxicity, degradability and biocompatibility in view of designing new intelligent biologically active polymer systems;
- Demonstrating the functionality of the multi-stimuli responsive innovative architectures; Testing the obtained materials in vitro and in vivo, for applications in medical and pharmaceutical fields;
- Dissemination on large scale of the information in order to strength cooperation with external partners.
