Molecular Models of Polymers Used in Sports EquipmentWilliam F. Coleman The Featured Molecules this month are a number of monomers and their associated polymers used in making equipment for a variety of high-impact sports. The molecules provide students with an introduction to an important area of applied chemistry and also enable them to examine complex structures using the models they have seen applied to small molecules. Coleman, William F. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1456.

Impact of Polymers in Impact SportsSandy Van Natta and John P. Williams This article describes some aspects of the design and testing of helmets and two inquiry-based activities for evaluating different polymers used in helmet construction. Van Natta, Sandy; Williams, John P. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1326.
Phlogiston (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Phlogiston: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". In this problem we will think back to the last half of the 18th century when modern chemistry was beginning to take place. One of the major problems occupying chemists at the time was combustion. The dominant theory of combustion in the mid-18th century involved a substance called "phlogiston." General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.
