  • Episode 36: Dr. Kevin Wyss discusses Flash-Joule Heating, Polymer Upcycling, and Life-Cycle Assessment
    We are back! Again! Much has changed since I've last been able to post an episode, but the wonders of polymer science continue propagating!  In this interview we hear from Dr. Kevin Wyss, who earned his PhD during August of 2023 from Rice University. Dr. Wyss has since taken his incredible talents with him to Schlumberger, advancing the frontier of sustainable materials. Tune in to the show to learn more about polymer upcycling, graphene generation through flash-joule heating, and the significance of life-cycle assessment when generating novel materials.
