Abstract
Polymers play a great part in our daily lives and without them around, this world would be very, very different, if not impossible to live in. Monomers are essentially the building blocks of the molecules that make up everything, living and non-living, naturally occurring and man-made. Each monomer affects how that polymer looks, tastes, smells and behaves. Generally, polymers have good characteristics but their applications are often limited by shortcomings in certain properties. Thus, research in polymer modification has gained momentum in the last 50 years as a viable alternative to the synthesis of new polymers. Chemical modification of polymers is a flexible, technologically feasible, and economically viable alternative to the synthesis of new polymers. The use of synthetic and natural fiber as reinforcing materials is the latest invention in polymer science in order to get higher strength with lower weight composite materials. Polymer composite research has evolved dramatically in the decade when nanomaterials have been shown to possess unique properties. Nanocomposites are matrices to which nanoparticles have been added to improve a particular property of the materials. The properties of nanocomposites have caused researchers and industries to consider using these materials in several fields. The lecture highlights my research journey over the span of 25 years. The first exposure to polymer research was obtained at the University of Salford on the preparation and characterization of copolymeric hydrogels based on n-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone, where several copolymers were prepared by g-irradiation. Research on hydrogels was continued in UPM with work on the immobilization of enzyme on copolymeric hydrogels, where lipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized by entrapment on poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) hydrogel. UPM polymer research group modified sago starch by grafting in an effort to diversify the use of sago and studied the effect of reaction conditions on grafting parameters. Later research was carried on the use of other natural products; rubber wood, coconut coir oil palm empty fruits bunch (OPEFB) and rice straw fibers. The studies reveal that natural fibers have an outstanding potential as reinforcement in thermoplastics. However in the last eight years attention was focused on the nano scale, i.e. nanoparticles and bionanocomposites, which is the focus of the lecture.
