NON TECHNICAL AND TECHNICAL ABSTRACTFunds in the amount of $8,000 are recommended in partial support of the travel expenses and registration of ten underrepresented group scientists and junior faculty to attend the Pacific Polymer Conference (PPC)14, sponsored by the American Chemical Society?s Polymer Chemistry Division, to be held on 9-13 December 2015 in Kauai, Hawaii. The conference is the product of the Pacific Polymer Federation (PPF) which is a regional organization of individual polymer societies from around the Pacific Rim and Pacific islands currently numbering seventeen member societies from fourteen countries. The objective of the PPCs, which are held every two years and rotate among member societies, is to bring together polymer scientists from the Pacific region to discuss and exchange recent advances in polymer science, polymer technology, and the application of polymers. The last conference in the series organized by a US society was held in 2005. The planned conference which is scientifically and technologically comprehensive, is organized into six main sessions, each encompassing two or more subsessions. The main sessions are: (1) POLYMER SYNTHETIC CHEMISTRY. (2) BIO-RELATED POLYMERS. (3) POLYMER PHYSICS and PROCESSING. (4) ENERGY. (5) ENVIRONMENT. (6) SPECIAL TOPICS. The proposal includes a running list of expert invited speakers for each session. The conference offers the opportunity for the development of closer ties among Pacific Rim polymer groups and individual scientists, to mutual benefit.

建议将非技术和技术摘要额为8,000美元，以部分支持10位代表性不足的小组科学家和初级教师参加太平洋聚合物会议（PPC）14，该会议由美国化学学会（American Chemical Society）于2015年12月9日至13日在Kauiai，Hawaiai，Hawaii，Hawaiai，Hawaiai。会议是太平洋聚合物联合会（PPF）的产物，该组织是一个来自太平洋沿岸和太平洋岛屿周围的各个聚合物社会的区域组织，目前来自十四个国家 /地区的17个成员社会。 PPC的目标每两年举行一次并在成员社会之间旋转，是将来自太平洋地区的聚合物科学家汇总在一起，讨论和交换聚合物科学，聚合物技术和聚合物的应用方面的最新进展。美国社会组织的最后一次会议是在2005年举行的。计划的会议在科学且技术上是全面的，分为六个主要会议，每个会议包括两个或更多个或多个小节。主要会议是：（1）聚合物合成化学。 （2）与生物相关的聚合物。 （3）聚合物物理和加工。 （4）能量。 （5）环境。 （6）特殊主题。该提案包括每个会话的专家邀请发言人的运行列表。该会议为太平洋rim聚合物群体和个别科学家之间建立更紧密的联系提供了机会，以互惠互利。
