Scientific Focus: NIMSScientific Focus: NIMS Organic-inorganic hybrids (composites) are attractive because they integrate the
light-weight features, low-cost, and processabili ty of polymers with funct ionality ofinorganics
Widespread interest in nanocomposites (composites with nanoscale components)has been motivated by the promise of unmatched performance, design flexibi lity,and lower unit and life-cycle costs
Market forecasts estimate the use of nanocomposites to reach $800M by 2011
(annual growth rate of 24%)
Persistent challenges with poor miscibil ity, dispersion and interfacial strengthprevent nanocomposites from realizing their full potential

Scientific Focus: NIMSScientif ic Focus: NIMS
Nanoparticle ionic materials (NIMS) provide a highly tunable/functional
materials platform that solves many of these technical challenges
NIMS are a disruptive technology, enabling applications in multiple fields
NIMS are ideal for research and education at the interface ofnanotechnology, polymers and complex fluids

COCO22 Capture and SequestrationCapture and Sequestration
CO2 is a greenhouse gas
CO2sequestration involves three steps:
capture, transportation, and disposal
Carbon dioxide capture is the most expensive
A novel carbon capture technology under development utilizes an amine-
functionalized Task-Specific Ionic Liquid (IL)
NIMS are nanoscale analogs of ILs and offer numerous advantages forcapture and sequestration
Solvation in NIMS is driven by enthalpic as well as by entropic interactions NIMS with high-affinity nanoporous cores to enhance solubility can be
designed
Recovery of the capture fluid facilitated by magnetic cores
Catalytically active cores can be introduced for sequestration (olivines)
