Ph. D. in Engineering
OHKAWA KOUSAKU
Deputy DirectorHead of the Division
Professor (Institute of Textile Science and Technology)
Ph. D. in Science
- Research Field
- Polymer chemistry, Bio-related chemistry, Synthetic chemistry, Polymer/Textile materials
- Research Theme
- The origin of fiber forming function in the biological polymers are referred to as 'motifs' in the primary sequences of the monomer units. One of the major interest of our project is to seek out the chemical and physical properties of the motifs, including silk and underwater adhesive proteins.
