Society of Polymer Science, Japan

The Society of Polymer Science, Japan (SPSJ) is a professional organization dedicated to advancing the study and application of polymers—materials made up of long, repeating chains of molecules, like plastics and rubber. Founded in 1951, it serves as a platform for researchers, educators, and industry professionals to share knowledge, collaborate, and promote innovation in polymer science. The society organizes conferences, publishes research findings, and fosters educational programs, helping to advance understanding of polymer chemistry and technology, which are essential to many industries, including packaging, textiles, and electronics.
