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参加2022年美国物理学会3月会议上的短期课程《可持续聚合物：新材料的物理学、可持续发展设计和寿命终结》提供部分旅费支持。这一短期课程将提供机会，通过专家的指导和参与者之间的积极讨论，促进聚合物可持续性领域的知识。这一短期课程将重点介绍这一领域，重点是聚合物的物理性质和基础物理，以及如何在考虑可持续发展目标和衡量标准的情况下设计它们。为了实现这一目标，研究人员将来自包括聚合物物理、聚合物化学和材料科学在内的跨学科领域，研究聚合物的整个生命周期，从可持续的起源到易于处理和重复使用的设计。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
