Recently, news came from East China University of Science and Technology that the AI plus polymer software platform developed by the team of Professor Lin Jiaping of the school was born. This is the first polymer material genome research and development platform in China.
"The platform we have established accelerates the research and development of high-performance polymers and promotes the development of big data through data mining on the structural properties of polymer materials and integrating functions such as machine learning performance prediction, structural design, formulation and process parameter optimization. And artificial intelligence technology empowers the high-performance resin industry for composite materials." Lin Jiaping said.
It is understood that users are using AI When the plus polymer software platform performs the performance prediction function of polymer materials, you only need to click "Draw Structure" to input the drawn character strings converted from epoxy resin and curing agent into the corresponding input boxes, in just a few seconds , the page will return the epoxy resin performance prediction data calculated in the background. This method of virtual design and high-throughput prediction greatly improves the efficiency of research and development.
At present, the team has built the first resin structure performance database and intergroup chemical reaction database in China, including nearly 150,000 performance data of more than 30,000 polymers and nearly 1.4 million chemical reaction data of 58,516 elementary reaction templates. Based on the database, they also created a machine learning prediction model for more than ten properties of polymers, and built a polymer material genome research and development platform, which has multiple functions such as data retrieval and performance prediction. At present, the platform has been tested in Shanghai Huayi Group Resin Factory, Shanghai Aerospace Eighth Institute and other enterprises.
