Polymers for a Sustainable Future
Sustainability is now all across the chemical sciences and especially, a highly important topic for the polymer community. It ranges from using renewable and more sustainable resources, green production, material life span and end of use considerations, new recycling and material reuse concepts, to high performance polymers enabling new sustainable technologies. A sustainable future will hence benefit from a vivid polymer community that embraces sustainability in polymer synthesis, materials properties and industrial applications. The scope of the conference covers all physical and chemical aspects of polymers and sustainability, combining insights from academia and the chemical industry.
