One Word: Plastics: A group of
researchers defies wisdom with polymer
blends.pdf (2/28/03: THE CHRONICLE
OF HIGHER EDUCATION: RESEARCH: Rutgers
Univ.) - "Last fall, researchers from
Rutgers University waded chest-deep into
the waters of New Jersey's Mullica River
to build a bridge. Over the course of
eight weeks, they spent two days a week
wrestling 200-pound sections into place.
The 56-foot-long, one-lane bridge held
special meaning for them: It was
the world's first
all-plastic bridge, and they had
invented the material that made up the
"lumber." The polymer blend they used
came exclusively from recycled plastics.
The bridge was only the researchers'
latest success. Tens of thousands of
railroad ties made from one of their
plastic blends underlie train and subway
tracks across the country and overseas.
In 2000, royalties for their materials
brought more than $1-million to Rutgers,
which has since opened a center
dedicated to the polymers in Piscataway.
Now the researchers hope their work
might span the gap from engineering to
medicine, with plastics that could serve
as hip or knee replacements."
"A company called
Polywood licensed their technology
in 1999 and began mass producing
railroad ties made from their polymer
blend." (Entrepreneur
