Abstract
I would like to acknowledge the financial support of our research by the rubber industry, and by U.S. Army Ordnance Research, supplemented by other government agencies and the Petroleum Research Fund, ACS. I also want to emphasize that the honor of t award must be shared with all who have worked with me from the early 1940's to the present time. I will not name them here because there are so many, and I would not want to overlook anyone. I do want to thank my biographer. Professor Jack L. Koenig, who will introduce me this evening, and with whom I continue to collaborate on studies of both oxidation and vulcanization of rubbers. I am very proud to have been a member of the Rubber Division, ACS, since January of 1944, and I am very grateful to the division for choosing me to receive the Charles Goodyear Medal for 1983.
