For the chemists out there, this research started in the early 2000's as one of my job proposals. It only took 20 'short' years to get it to market! Kudos to Zengquan Qin from @TheCoatesCrew who discovered the catalyst, and Scott Allen and the Novomer folks for their hard work.

The hottest new reprocessable polyolefin thermoset dropped. @ElizaNeidhart with an absolute barnburner of a report in @J_A_C_S working with an all-star cast comprising of @UNC Sheiko group, Prof. Alexanian, @Frank_Leibfarth , @ORNL , @LBNLresearch , @GroupHelms & Mutian Hua.

Honored and excited to serve POLY and the polymer community!

[Kostas Vogiatzis @VogLab]

SMLQC-2023 was a huge success. Thank you Roland, @PavloDral, Chao, and Ignacio for organizing such a great meeting! We are waiting you for the next one in Knoxville @CHEMISTRYUTK @ArtsSciencesUT

In my polymer course, I teach that atactic polymers are usually amorphous, and isotactic and syndiotactic polymers are usually semicrystalline with different crystal structures. Methylated PHBs are all crystalline and isomorphic regardless of tacticity! https://t.co/lkZksXgvkf

[Heather D Maynard @HeatherDMaynard]

Looking forward to this!

[Geoff Coates @GeoffreyWCoates]

Our latest publication on the synthesis of sequence controlled PLGA. Awesome job by @YiyeLu on this paper! 🥳

[RSC Applied journals @RSCApplied]

RSC Applied Polymers has published its first issue! All articles are free to read, we are sure you will enjoy them! https://t.co/cyh2CsdOwQ #polymers #OpenAccess

[Brent Sumerlin @Brent_Sumerlin]

Absolutely ecstatic to be included in the first issue (and cover!) of this exciting journal!

[Brent Sumerlin @Brent_Sumerlin]

I hope some of these amazing people apply to the (just posted) tenure-track position in polymer chemistry @UFChemistry https://t.co/eCRSEKjsZl

[Jeff Foster @FeffJosterDhP]

Happy to share my fist @ORNL production about precise polymer functionalization.

So happy for my former advisor and mentor! @USM_Polymers

[Brian Long @BLongLab]

@DrTodd_Hudnall I wish we could make it open rank also, but this year's open area search is only at the Assistant Prof level

[Brian Long @BLongLab]

UTK Chemistry is hiring two tenure-track positions, one in analytical and the other open area!!!!!!!!!!!! See below for more info and links.
