Flory, Paul John,

1910–85, American chemist, b. Sterling, Ill., Ph.D. Ohio State Univ., 1934. Flory was a researcher with the DuPont Company (1934–37) and a professor at the Univ. of Cincinnati (1937–40). He then worked for Esso (now Exxon) Laboratories (1940–43) and Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company (1943–48). Flory returned to academia as a professor at Cornell (1948–57), the Mellon Institute, Pittsburgh (1957–61), and Stanford (1961–85). Flory won the 1974 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for theoretical and experimental achievements in the physical chemistry of macromolecules.

Flory, Paul John

Born June 19, 1910, in Sterling, III. American physical chemist.

Flory graduated from Manchester College in Indiana in 1931. He was a professor at Cornell University from 1948 to 1956 and executive director of research at the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research from 1956 to 1961; he became a professor at Stanford University in 1962. Flory is one of the authors of the theory of polycondensation and has made a significant contribution to the theory of polymer solutions and to the statistical mechanics of macromolecules. Methods for determining the structure and properties of macromolecules from viscosity, sedimentation, and diffusion measurements have been developed on the basis of Flo-ry’s work. Flory received a Nobel Prize in 1974.
