内容简介：
【简介】 The Polymer Processing Institute is an independent research corporation headquartered at New Jersey Institute of Technology, Newark, NJ USA. Its mission is to assist industry by advancing knowledge in the field of polymer technology and related areas through sponsored research, development and education, and to disseminate information via technology transfer. PPI is involved in extension activities for the plastics industry (through the New Jersey Manufacturing Extension Program), edits its own journal, "Advances in Polymer Technology", edits and authors its own Monograph Series, organizes meetings for member companies on generic aspects of polymer processing, offers training opportunities and advanced-level short courses for engineers and scientists in the industry, and supports the education and research needs of graduate and undergraduate students.
The headquarter of the Polymer Processing Institute (PPI) was moved from Stevens Institute of Technology to the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) January 1, 1999. The move took place after sixteen years at Stevens, where PPI was founded in 1982. The move to NJIT served PPI’s need for a large, contiguous polymer processing laboratory space, which is provided for by the factory floor facility in the Guttenberg Information Technology Center building.
