The Teator Research Lab
Welcome to the Teator Research Lab at KU!
Our research is focused on diversifying the types of structures accessible to us through controlled polymerization and in turn developing new, functional materials. We’re working on developing new polymerizations, new monomers, and new post-functionalization methods. We target applications in a multitude of areas ranging from sustainability, high-performance engineering materials, and biomedicine. Research in the Teator Lab includes components physical organic chemistry, small-molecule synthesis, polymer synthesis, and polymer physics.
