COVER STORY
Happy 70th Anniversary of SPSJ toward the Future of Polymer
The field of polymer science has been developed and expanded in relation to various other fields. Our life and society have been enriched by polymer materials, and nowadays we cannot live without them. On the other hand, environmental issues such as the marine pollution caused by microplastics and the increase in carbon dioxide emissions by the disposal of polymeric materials are getting more attentions, and thus development of polymers that are not only stable and functional but also sustainable and environmentally benign are required. We, polymer scientists, are well versed in the syntheses, properties, and characteristics of polymers, and thus can solve abovementioned issues. Let’s concentrate the innovative power to pursue the polymer science that can contribute to a sustainable society in the future on the occasion of the celebration of the SPSJ founding 70th anniversary.
