DYK health care is one of the largest waste-producing sectors in the U.S.?

@VTEngineering researchers aim to tackle this problem. They won a grant to develop biodegradable materials to eventually displace plastics used in health care facilities.

Polymers are everywhere, and our #Hokies are taking a closer look. 🔬

In their final capstone before graduating, our chemistry seniors get real-life experience in the labs tackling the replication of original research articles in individual projects.

#Hokies in @VT_Science have found a new way to upcycle styrofoam that supports the cosmetic, fragrance, and pharmaceutical industries by creating reaction conditions that transform these hard-to-recycle plastics into useful monomers. ♻️

Did you know that electric vehicle battery cells can be as small as those in your watch? 🤔

@VT_Science #Hokies are researching electric vehicle batteries & their cycle life, low-temperature performance, & fast-charging capabilities to determine how to improve them. 🚗

[TE Long Research Group @TELongLab]

A few of our members teamed up with ASU's POLY/PMSE chapter to do a short demonstration on packing peanuts, recycling, and sustainable polymer science. Check it out!

As we bring our #VTChem Graduate Program Week to a close, we'd like to invite you to our upcoming virtual information session on Wednesday, November 16.

We'll discuss program basics, timeline, application tips, and have a Q&A. We hope to see you there!

[Virginia Tech Chemistry @VTChemDept]

It’s the start of #VTChem Graduate Program Week!

Here’s what we’ve got planned:

Tuesday (tomorrow): Intro to our program and application📌

Wednesday + Thursday: Intro to our faculty and research🧑‍🏫🧪

Friday: Life in the ‘Burg! 🌄

Be sure to check back in to learn more!

[Virginia Tech Chemistry @VTChemDept]

It’s Day 1 of #VTChem’s Graduate Program Week!

Today we’ll be sharing about our program and hopefully get you one step closer to submitting your application.
