March 23rd VT KTU exhibit- "Explore Our World by Investigating Materials"


We invite you to stop by our booth and become a materials scientist by investigating the properties of some materials! Through hands-on activities, you’ll discover why oil and water don’t mix, what magnetic fields look like, what causes silly putty to act the way it does, and more!!

Hosted by Prof. Lou Madsen’s research group - Chemistry Department.
We study how molecules interact to determine properties of the materials humans use, and
we use this knowledge to design all new materials. We work on materials used in advanced 
technologies such as lithium batteries, water purification, and hydrogen fuel cells.
