The Pacific Polymer Federation


The Pacific Polymer Federation (PPF) was founded in 1987 with the main focus of driving and synergizing efforts in polymer research and innovation by groups of like-minded individuals spanning the USA, Australia, and Japan. Jim O’Donnell and David Hill, RACI; Takeo Saegusa and Akihiro Abe, SPSJ; and Otto Vogl and Joe Salamone, POLY; were the founders and the first PPF council members.

Nowadays, the PPF counts numerous members from scientific societies across 16 different countries bordering the Pacific Rim. Since its inception, the PPF has grown rapidly into a worldwide renowned organization that provides multiple platforms and opportunities for international research organizations in the polymer science, technology, and innovation.

Build long-term relationships with potential and current customers.

Engage and connect with current world leaders in polymer science from Universities, Research Centers, and Industry.

Increase your brand awareness before, during, and after the conference.
