Research Services

The Science Library serves as a research resource for Rubber Division, ACS members and others in the elastomer industry. Our fee-based research service helps technical staff and business leaders alike to uncover scientific, technical and industry information. While we specialize in the science and technology of rubber (formulation, processing and testing), the Library is equipped to answer questions on just about any topic.
