Abstract

The IUPAC Polymer Division, Subcommittee on Polymer Education and the Committee on Chemistry Education have launched a Polymer video competition.

The competition is open to all educational levels, individuals or groups.

Various categories allow everyone to take part, from high-school students, to undergraduate and postgrads. The content of the video shall depend on the age/education group and focus on one of the following topics:

  1. Basic polymer concepts

  2. Polymer history

  3. Polymer experiments

  4. Advanced polymer concepts

  5. Polymer experiments

  6. Polymer nomenclature

See examples, detailed guidelines and resources are available online via https://iupac.org/polymer-video-competition/

There will be 9 winning entries in total. The selected videos will be showcased in the IUPAC’s official YouTube channel in the “Polymer Educational series.” We will also be giving out the following:

  1. Group 1 – Individual certificates and IUPAC chemistry goodies and an invitation for a virtual presentation at an IUPAC Polymer division meeting

  2. Group 2 – Individual certificates and IUPAC chemistry goodies, an invitation for a virtual presentation at an IUPAC Polymer division meeting, and an invitation as a Young Observer for an IUPAC world congress or MACRO conference and with 1000 USD of travel fund

  3. Group 3 – Individual certificates and IUPAC chemistry goodies and an invitation as a Young Observer for an IUPAC world congress or MACRO conference and with 1000 USD of travel fund

New, creative, and original content related to polymer topics in video format are encouraged! To submit your video, please complete the submission form: https://bit.ly/polymervids

Submission deadline is 31 March 2024.
