Abstract
Sun will discuss nanofibers that can be produced from polymer blends. His work
involves chemically modified polymers that are processed into nano and submicrofibers.
The project converts halamine structures after chlorine bleaching, which provides
rapid and refreshable biocidal functions against most pathogens upon contact.
