This concentrated workshop has been updated and expanded to include the most recent advances in "post metallocene" catalysts. The workshop provides attendees with a thorough primer on the principles of both metallocene and "next generation" single-site catalyst chemistries. It offers up-to-date information on catalyst performance and resin processing, new assessments of inter-material competitiveness, and the range of strategic alternatives in licensing, joint ventures, and proprietary technology development. The course content and workbook materials have been developed over six years of presenting and refining the workshop for technical and commercial audiences in the US, Europe and Asia. This course is a "must" for all levels of industry professionals seeking to enhance their understanding of the chemistry and process dynamics of metallocene and SSC technologies, as well as the business impacts and strategic implications. (See Agenda and Program-At-A-Glance.)

COURSE INSTRUCTORS:
Mr. Clyde F. Payn has 25 years of technical, marketing and managerial experience concerning catalytic technologies and the catalyst industry. He formed Catalyst Consultants, Inc. (CCI) in 1984, the forerunner and largest member of The Catalyst Group, to provide comprehensive business strategy and technology based consulting services to the industry.
Dr. Richard F. Jordan, a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Chicago, is widely renowned for his expertise in organometallic chemistry and catalysis. Since taking his doctorate at Princeton, he has worked in a wide range of general research areas, including Organometallic and Inorganic Chemistry, Ziegler-Natta Olefin Polymerization, Homogeneous Catalysis, Polymer Chemistry, Stereoselective Synthesis and Catalysis, Metallocarborane Chemistry, Organometallic Reaction Mechanisms, and Development of New Ligands for Early Metal Chemistry.
Mr. John Murphy is responsible for monitoring and analyzing technical and commercial developments in the metallocene and SSCs industries. Mr. Murphy manages the Annual Metallocene and Single-Site Catalyst Program, a business and technology intelligence tool.
