Research Interest

Rheology; Polymer solution and suspensions; Polymer physicscrosslinked systems, structure-property relations; Molecular organization in supramolecular systems; Gelation phenomenon.

Research  Projects
The research activity of Prof. Moshe Gottlieb's group is related to two main topics

(i) Polymers in the vicinity of surfaces and interfaces.  This includes the study of polymer filler interactions, effect of surface chemistry on polymer  adsorptionpolymers in the vicinity of interfaces in relation to polymeric surfactants and the effect of surfaces on polymer crystallization.

(ii) Gelation phenomena and especially physical gelation as result of microdomain confinement.
