By: Jennifer Maclachlan,
Public Relations Chair, SCHB
There was a tie for the Outstand-
ing Collaboration Between a Local
Section and Division Award at the
15th Annual ChemLuminary Awards
at the ACS Fall National Meeting in
Indianapolis, September 10, 2013. It
was a win-win situation for the ACS
Division of Small Chemical Busi-
nesses which claimed both awards
from the Divisional Activities Com-
mittee: one for collaborating with
the ACS Georgia Local Section and
the second for partnering with the
Northeastern Local Section.
About the award winning
activity: ACS-GLS and SCHB
The Chemical Businesses Group
of the ACS Georgia Local Section
organized an entrepreneurial net-
working event featuring a showcase
of 18 small chemical businesses
within their local section on Novem-
ber 9, 2012, hosted by Kennesaw
State University, in cooperation
with the ACS Georgia Local Section
Academia/Industry Forum. Accord-
ing to Deanna Morrow Hall, one
of the organizers, this event was
an “enormous opportunity to raise
the visibility of the area’s chemical
businesses”. The Academia/Industry
Forum included talks on research
collaborations between universities
and industry focusing on patenting
and developing commercial prod-
ucts, and government regulations.
An Innovative Project Grant (IPG)
was used for the Local Chemical
Businesses Showcase to develope
membership by creating a network-
ing venue for current and prospective
members in the chemical enterprise
via the small chemical business
Showcase. This award was one of
six that the ACS-Georgia Local Sec-
tion won at the 2013 ChemLuminary
awards.
About the award winning
activity: NESACS and SCHB
The Northeastern Local section in
cooperation with the ACS Division
of Small Chemical Businesses and
Nova Biomedical with financial sup-
port from the NESACS Government
Relations Committee, organized a
day long symposium on October 11,
2012 titled: Starting and Financing
a Small Chemical Business. The
program included a summary of the
ACS Entrepreneurial Initiative (see
the Massachusetts Small Business
Development Center) the start-up
of Nova Biomedical in the 1970s,
conventional and SBA financing.
Other subjects included advantages
of executive education for technical/
scientific entrepreneurs, non dilu-
tive and dilutive equity funding, and
talks on the advantages of tweeting
and other social media platforms for
marketing a small chemical busi-
ness. True Stories of Chemical En-
trepreneurs, an SCHB flagship sym-
posium at ACS Meetings, debuted
at this local section symposium and
featured four NESACS members and
their fascinating stories ranging from
working with Senators Kennedy and
Dole to get government R&D fund-
ing for small businesses in the early
1980’s to the start-up of a contract
drug discovery company in the
Boston area. The evening portion of
the event was the NESACS Monthly
Meeting honoring the 50, 60 and 70
year ACS members.
Anis Rahman
Meeting Participation
Dr. Anis Rahman, past chair of the
Southeast Pennslyvania section of
the (ACS) and Planning Chair of
SCHB was present at the Joseph
Priestley Award to Dr. James E.
Hansen at Dickinson College. Dr.
Hansen, former director of the
NASA Goddard Institute for Space
Studies, is adjunct professor at Co-
lumbia University’s Earth Institute.
Dr. Anis Rahman’s presentation at
Indianapolis’s ACS meeting ‘Tera-
hertz radiation (T-rays) offers poten-
tial for earlier diagnosis of mela-
noma”, was selected as part of the
ACS news releases to the press. See
interview here: http://www.ustream.
tv/recorded/38602333. Dr. Rahman,
president and chief technology offi-
cer of Applied Research & Photonics
in Harrisburg PA. states “Terahertz
radiation (T-rays) is ideal for looking
beneath the skin and detecting early
signs of melanoma. T-rays are differ-
ent from X-rays, which are ‘ioniz-
ing’ radiation that can cause damage.
T-rays are a form of ‘non-ionizing’
radiation, like ordinary visible light,
but they can be focused harmlessly
below into the body and capture
biochemical signatures of events like
the start of cancer.”
Stay tuned: On April 9, 2014, Nova
Biomedical hosts the ACS Entrepre-
neurial Resource Center Showcase
East business pitching competition
in cooperation with the ACS Divi-
sion of Small Chemical Businesses
and the Northeastern Local Section.

with her startup, SusTerea
Biorenewables
Jennifer Lee, SCHB
Assistant Newsletter Editor
Currently in the final year of her Ph.D.
in organic chemistry at Iowa State
University, Jennifer Lee’s research
in green chemistry led to an oppor-
tunity to explore entrepreneurship
through startup company SusTerea
Biorenewables, LLC. The startup
aims to generate specialty and com-
modity aromatic building blocks
from bio-based feedstocks to cre-
ate a sustainable future. The initial
target is dimethyl terephthalate for
incorporation into polyester fibers and
containers, although extensive com-
mercial targets are possible based on
SusTerea’s versatile platform technol-
ogy. In conjunction with the Center
for Biorenewable Chemicals (CBiRC)
and university professors at Iowa State
University, SusTerea will continue
exploring partnership opportunities
and growth. More details are found in

Davis Deutsch - SCHB Treasurer
Due to numerous requests by SCHB
members, we have added an easy
access to credit card payment for
some transactions, including Patron
Membership ($200), Sponsorships
($500 - $1.500), and $500 pay-
ment for a Booth on Small Chemi-
cal Businesses Row at future ACS
Expos (in 2014, in Dallas in March,
and in San Francisco in August).
We prefer that you still pay by
check, but if it's more convenient
for you to pay via credit card, it is
now available via the SCHB web-
site on secure pages for credit card
transactions.
Some details: Patron Membership
- If your firm wishes to become an
SCHB Member, Patron member-
ship is just the ticket. You can be
the Liaison Member and take a
more active role with this organi-
zation and the ACS. For full list

Booth: One of the great benefits of
SCHB membership is the opportu-
nity to test, at minimal cost, whether
the marketplace offered by ACS
Expo is right for your company's
products and/or services. For $500
(which also includes one Techni-
cal Registration, a $370 value), you
get a 10x 10 foot booth on Small
Chemical Businesses Row at ACS
Expo - the same fully-furnished
booth that other exhibitors get, but
they pay a much higher price. You
must be an SCHB member before
you can be eligible for this exclusive
benefit, and you must contact us
first. Please contact SCHB Booth
Coordinator Dr. Anis Rahman at
expo-booth@acs-schb.org for further
details. Now is the time to get
started in booking your booth for the
full ACS Meeting in Dallas (March
16-18), before they are sold out.

at http://www.acs-schb.org/About/
SCHB/Booth.html. Once you select
your booth at ACS Expo, we will
invoice you, and you can pay via
credit card at: http://www.acs-schb.
org/About/SCHB/Booth/Payment.
html or by check. Existing members
pay only $500, and new-comers,
$515. To qualify, you must 1) be an
SCHB member, 2) have few than 50
“chemical” employees, and 3) have
$1M liability insurance.

What is Co-op?
Co-op is an academic model in
which students alternate periods
of study with periods of paid work
experience in their field. The con-
cept was pioneered in 1906 at the
University of Cincinnati by Her-
man Schneider. The co-op extends
student learning beyond the class-
room allowing them to gain practi-
cal experience, integrate theory and
practice, and further develop their
professional and interpersonal skills.
Benefits of the Co-op Program to
Students
Working as a co-op enables students
to better understand how the con-
cepts they learn in the classroom
can be applied in real-world settings
Working as a co-op allows students
to gain valuable experience in their
field which helps them gain confi-
dence in their skills and gives them
an advantage as they enter the com-
petitive job market. Students have
the opportunity to make connections
in their field which can help them
find permanent employment after
they graduate. Students can “test
drive” their new career to make sure
it is a good fit Many students get
hired by their co-op company after
they graduate!
Why Hire a Co-op Student?
Co-op students bring enthusiasm,
fresh ideas, and new skill sets they
are eager to use. Co-op students are
a cost effective method for devel-
oping projects or obtaining assis-
tance with daily workloads. Co-op
students quickly come up to speed
and are capable of performing work
equal to full-time employees at a
fraction of the cost. Co-ops allow
companies to create a pipeline of tal-
ented and trained potential employ-
ees to fill their full-time recruiting
needs.
It all started at the University of
Cincinnati
The UC Cooperative Education
Program is the oldest in the world
and the largest cooperative educa-
tion program at a public university
in the United States. It has been
ranked 4th in the United States by
the U.S. News and World Report.
UC students alternate semesters of
study with semesters of full-time
work. This gives students the op-
portunity to work in cities all over
the United States, as well as inter-
nationally. Alternating semesters
also gives employers the advantage
of having a student year-round,
if needed. For more information
about the University of Cincin-
nati’s co-op program, please contact
Paula Sturm at paula.sturm@uc.edu
or call 513-556-9811.
