The Polymer Centre

The Polymer Centre at the University of Sheffield is a network of some 40 research groups active in all branches of polymer science and engineering, the UK’s largest single-university network in the field. The network includes world-leading academic experts in all aspects of polymer synthesis, processing and behaviour, from first-principles scientific understanding through to engineered applications in sectors like aerospace, coatings, electronics, energy, healthcare and home and personal care.
A business-facing Polymer Centre team provides a public face for the network, matching technical enquiries with the most appropriate academic resources, recommending relevant formats for interaction and assisting in project management as necessary. Where the most appropriate format for interaction is a short to medium term contract R&D project, we work with FaraPack Polymers, a spin-out of the University, to deliver programmes to client timescales and budgets. The Polymer Centre also delivers a range of training and conference events on behalf of our network, most significantly the Polymer IRC's short modular course in Polymer Science & Technology accredited by IOM3.
