Proceedings of the 36th Conference of the Polymer Processing Society (PPS36)

This conference was organized by the Polymer Processing Society (PPS), which was founded in March 1982 at the University of Akron, Akron, Ohio, USA. The intent was to provide a mechanism and format for interaction and presentation of reseach resuts in the international polymer processing community. The goals of the society and therefore this conference were 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 encompassed all formulation, conversion, and shaping operations applied to polymeric systems in the transformation from their monomeric forms to commercial products.
