The proposal addresses the development of inexpensive, high performance         polymer composites for structural applications, such as automotive body         panels, with improved impact resistance and damage tolerance.  In               particular, it deals with a novel processing technique of producing             self-reinforcing polymer composite with highly controlled orientation of        the reinforcing phase, namely, the liquid crystal polymer (LCP) formed          in-situ in a thermoplastic matrix.                                                                                                                              The proposed research addresses some fundamental issues involved in the         development of polymer melt blends.  It is expected to advance the              science base and offer new technological opportunities.
