Abstract:
Artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods and computational materials science continue to make inroads into accelerated materials design and development. I will review Al-enabled advances made in the subfield of polymer informatics, with a particular focus on the design of application-specific practical polymeric materials. I will describe exemplar design attempts within a few critical and emerging application spaces, including materials designs for storing, producing, and conserving energy, and those that can prepare us for a sustainable economy powered by recyclable and/or biodegradable polymers. Al- powered workflows help efficiently search the staggeringly large chemical and configurational space of materials, using modern machine-learning (ML) algorithms to solve forward and inverse materials design problems. A practical informatics-based design protocol involves creating a set of application-specific target property criteria, building ML model predictors for those relevant target properties, enumerating or generating a tangible population of viable polymers, and selecting candidates that meet design recommendations. The protocol will be demonstrated for several energy and sustainability-related applications. Finally, I will offer an outlook on the lingering obstacles that must be overcome to achieve widespread adoption of informatics-driven protocols in industrial-scale materials development.
