Benefits of Membership

• In addition to receiving the Preprints as they are issued, members are informed of the activities of the Division through Newsletters, which are normally issued three times a year, and which give details of future programs, instructions for submitting papers for the general sessions and symposia, information on location of meetings, and other items of interest to the membership, such as continuing education courses and national and international meetings of other technical organizations, calls for nominations, and the ballot for the annual election of Division officers.
• Members and Affiliates of the Division of Petroleum Chemistry receive a discount on the abstracts of papers which are published in book form by the ACS News Service at each National Meeting. Division members are also entitled to substantial discounts on those volumes of the ACS Symposium Series and the Advances in Chemistry Series that originate as Division symposia.
