TECHNICAL AND NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY:This conference award will provide partial support for travel expenses of students, postdoctoral researchers, and high school teachers to participate in the Short Course "Sustainable Polymers: Physics of New Materials, Design for Sustainability, and End-of-Life" at the 2022 American Physical Society March Meeting. This short course will offer the opportunity to advance knowledge in the field of polymer sustainability through instruction from experts and engaging discussions among participants. This short course will bring a focused perspective to this area, with emphasis on physical properties and fundamental physics of polymers and how they may be designed with consideration of sustainability goals and metrics. Towards this goal, researchers will come together from cross-disciplinary areas, including polymer physics, polymer chemistry, and materials science, and address the full life cycle of polymers, from sustainable origins to design for ease of end-of-life handling and re-use.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

技术和非技术摘要：该会议奖将为学生，博士后研究人员和高中教师的旅行费用提供部分支持，以参加“可持续聚合物：新材料的物理学，可持续性设计和临近生活”的短期课程。 这本简短的课程将提供机会通过专家的指导并参与参与者的讨论来推进聚合物可持续性领域的知识。这条短期课程将为这一领域带来重点的观点，重点是物理性质和聚合物的基本物理，以及如何考虑可持续性目标和指标。为了实现这一目标，研究人员将从跨学科的领域（包括聚合物物理学，聚合物化学和材料科学）汇聚在一起，并解决聚合物的完整生命周期，从可持续性起源到设计，以便于使用终止寿命的处理和重复使用。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过评估了基础的范围，并通过评估了基金会的范围。
