About PPS
The Polymer Processing Society was founded in March 1985 at the University of Akron, Ohio,
USA; the intent was to provide a mechanism and format for
interaction and presentation of research results in the
international polymer processing community; the goals are
to foster scientific understanding and technical innovation
in polymer processing by providing a discussion forum for
the worldwide community of Engineers and Scientists in the
field. The thematic range encompasses all formulation, conversion
and shaping operations applied to polymeric system in the
transformation from their monomeric forms to commercial
products. Membership in PPS is open to all researchers in
the field, and to all persons who feel the activities of
the society advance their professional development.
