It is our pleasure to announce the "Branched Polymers in Emerging Technologies" symposium for the 2008 Spring National ACS Meeting in New Orleans (April 6-10), ACS Division of Polymer Chemistry (POLY). This symposium will feature recent developments in the areas of synthesis, processing, polymer physics and applications of branched polymers. It will include topics such as hyperbranched polymers, dendrimers, branching in polyolefins and controlled branching. We are inviting contributions in all areas of branched polymers. We welcome any questions or contributions addressed to the symposium organizers listed below:
