46 Polymer Reaction Engineering

Sunday, November 13, 2016: 3:30 PM - 6:00 PM
Continental 1 (Hilton San Francisco Union Square)
Description:
This session will cover topics of current interest in polymerization kinetics, catalysis, and reaction engineering. Papers may include areas such as the chemistry of polymerization, polymer reactions and physical interactions, design of new catalysts for controlled polymerizations, and polymerizations in novel media and/or reactor configurations. ***Note to faculty candidates: please include a note to the session chair during submission to alert them to your status***
