Polymer Chemistry is the underpinning science of modern materials and biomaterials.

The Whittaker Polymer Research Group at UQ is building and studying new materials to solve practical problems facing our society. The Polymer Group is part of the Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology, Australia's leading institute dedicated to exploring the science of the interface between nanomaterials and the biological world. 

Research conducted within the Polymer Chemistry Group covers a broad range of topics, and is based on our expertise in polymerisation chemistry.
The Polymer Chemistry Group has within their laboratories or within affiliated laboratories extensive synthetic and analytical capabilities.
