Abstract
High-throughput and combinatorial methods unlock novel approaches to investigations of new materials, allowing the materials community to carry out studies that promise greater efficiency to materials discovery and optimization. To this end, we have developed a suite of test methods to probe the adhesive and mechanical properties of polymer coatings and interfaces. This presentation will describe the efforts of the NIST Combinatorial Methods Center to develop a multi-lens adhesion test, combinatorial peel test, combinatorial edge delamination test, and a thin film modulus measurement.
