About Polymer Processing Society
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 the interaction and presentation of research results in the international polymer
processing community.
Our Goals
The goals of the Polymer Processing Society (PPS) as embodied in its constitution 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 of the PPS encompasses all formulation,
conversion and shaping operations applied to polymeric systems in the transformation from their monomeric forms to
commercial products.
Membership
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.
