Biennial Symposium (1998) - November 22-25, 1998 Polymer Chemistry Division, American Chemical Society

Abstract It is a great pleasure to return to Montreal to receive the Charles Goodyear Medal at this joint meeting of the American Chemical Society, Rubber Division, and the Rubber Chemistry Division, Chemical Institute of Canada. This occasion has given me a delightful opportunity to renew old friendships in both organizations and to visit again my graduate school at McGill. First of all, I thank the Awards Committee and the Executive Committee of the Rubber Division for electing me to this high honor which I share with my many collaborators who were with me during those exciting years, and with the Shell Companies. The subject of the lecture is “Thermoplastic Elastomers,” specifically the triblock copolymers based on styrene and dienes, or hydrogenated dienes. Previously I have used the subtitle, “A Successful Innovation,” where I have defined “innovation” as the successful commercialization of a new technology, process, or product. In this lecture, I shall discuss the background of the innovation, the impact of it upon the thermoplastic elastomer field, and some of the early history of thermoplastic elastomers, which I believe you will find interesting.

Nomenclature for Regular Single-Strand and Quasi Single-Strand Inorganic and Coordination PolymersBased on the document “A Structure-Based Nomenclature for Polymers. II. One-Dimensional Inorganic and Semi-Organic Polymers” prepared by the Nomenclature Committee of the American Chemical Society Division of Polymer Chemistry (1977).

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine sustainability with an emphasis on China. Design/methodology/approach – The paper examines previous research on sustainability and polymer chemistry to provide a better understanding of the importance of sustainability and technology in China. Findings – There are many different perspectives when it comes to sustainability and that multiple stakeholders need to be considered when examining sustainability. Originality/value – As the longest serving member of the American Chemical Society (ACS) accreditation committee and a Fellow of the ACS, the perspective on which this paper is based comes from over 1,000 publications and over 45 years of active research in the sciences and technology.
