Stimulus-Responsive Polymers and Liquid Crystal Elastomers

Rebroadcast coming this Fall!

Introduction

The success of the Division of Polymer Chemistry (POLY) webinars made clear that the polymer community benefits from seminars accessible to all members, especially those who cannot travel to ACS Meetings and POLY workshops. POLY is providing access to in-depth thematic content in modern areas of Polymer Chemistry in the form of a POLY Webshop. POLY's Industrial Advisory Board is pleased to co-sponsored the next installment on Stimulus-Responsive Polymers and Liquid Crystal Elastomers.

​​

For the Fall 2021 Rebroadcast of POLY Webshops and hosted by Peter Poul (AramcoAmericas), the webshop will highlight Chis Bowman (University of Colorado at Boulder, Shu Yang (University of Pennsylvania), and Shengqiang Cai (University of California at San Diego) who will be offering expanded 35-minute virtual lectures on the latest advances in Stimulus-Responsive Polymers and Liquid Crystal Elastomers.

Co-sponsored and organized by the POLY Industrial Advisory Board.
