The International Rubber Science Hall of Fame recognizes the careers of notable professionals in rubber technology.[1] It is jointly sponsored by the Maurice Morton Institute of Polymer Science at The University of Akron and the Rubber Division of the American Chemical Society.
The Goodyear Polymer Center at the University of Akron houses the Hall of Fame's portrait gallery.[2]
