| This invited session honors the late Professor J. Larry Duda, whose career achievements at Dow Chemical and the Penn State University Department of Chemical Engineering had an immeasurable impact on our current understanding of diffusion in polymers. The session concerns theory, experiment, and modeling of diffusion in polymers, with a focus on polymer-solvent systems. Presentations regarding fundamental studies, as well as those addressing integration of fundamentals into engineering applications, are welcome. |
