Excerpt from Polymers: Technical Activities 1992The Polymers Division provides standards, measurement methods, and fundamental concepts of polymer science to assist U. S industries that produce or use synthetic polymers in essential parts of their business. This broad mission has to be focussed, however, to match the finite resources and technical capabilities of the Division. The primary way in which these priorities are set is by assessing customer needs and evaluating the potential payoff to the industry and the nation. Industrial input into program planning and direction came from four nist/ Industry Workshops held during the past year on sensors for, polymer processing, polymer blends, polymer composite processing and performance of high technology polymers.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
