Abstract
Transport phenomena and mechanical properties of polymer networks play a pivotal role in enabling advanced material applications, including energy storage, ion separation, and polymer recycling. This thesis explores the transport mechanisms of ions and penetrants in polymer networks and the influence of curing conditions on network performance. Through a combination of experimental studies and theoretical insights, this work addresses critical challenges in polymer network design and processing.
