Benefits of Industrial Membership

• The company's obligations are concerned with travel expenses, only, if any.

2. Receipt of pre-prints of our research manuscripts as they are accepted for publication.

• This gives the company member access to recent state-of-the-art research results well in advance (sometimes almost a year and a half) before they appear in the open literature.

3. Free registration (except for room and board) for representatives of your company at our annual Symposium on Polymerization Theory/Practice.

• The Symposium takes place annually in May.

4. Industrial Short Courses

• 2 annual locations--Waterloo, Ontario and Europe
• General Courses--Polymer Science and Polymer Reaction Engineering
• Courses on specific technologies (e.g., polyolefins, PVC, emulsions...)
• Special discounts for member companies
• Special rates for in-house courses for member companies

5. Preferential consideration in undertaking contract research and other, more informal interactions.

6. Reduced rates on our specialized equipment (GPC/LALLS, CRYSTAF, Rheometrics, polymerization pilot plant, high temperature GPC/Viscometer, etc.).

• Such services are normally not available to non-member companies.
• Rates are negotiated based on the number of samples or the scope of project.

Membership Fee

• Membership is renewable annually by paying the fee.
