Abstract: Amongst the greatest challeng es faced by modern society are the transition to sustainable technologies and the always-pressing need to develop healthcare solutions. Many of the proposed innovations to address these challenges require the ability to de sign materials with unprecedented structural and compositional control. Au tomation is emerging as a solution to provide controlled synthesis\, proce ssing\, and assembly of polymer materials\; combined with data science\, t hese two tools are well-poised to accelerate the discovery and development of advanced materials. This talk will first discuss engineering strategie s towards controlling polymer molecular weight\, composition\, and topolog y with a digital level of precision. Precision synthesis is achieved with an automated flow reactor and is demonstrated by the complete control over polymer molecular weight distribution shape\, as well as the synthesis of shape-defined bottlebrush polymers. This work pushes the limits of molecu lar design and assembly\, with applications as a nanostructured material f or electronics\, structural color\, filtration\, water purification\, and energy storage. The second half of the talk will focus on the development of high throughput automation for polymer synthesis and the role of data s cience for polymer material discovery.
