Graeme Moad
Graeme Moad is an Australian polymer chemist.
He received a Bachelor of Science in 1974 and a Ph.D. in 1977, both from the University of Adelaide. He followed this with postdoctoral research at Pennsylvania State University.
In 1979 he joined the CSIRO in Melbourne; CSIRO is Australia's largest scientific research organisation. He has made substantial contributions to the theory of free radical polymerization, and he was co-author with David Solomon of the definitive reference book: The Chemistry of Radical Polymerization (Moad & Solomon, 2006). With fellow CSIRO polymer chemists Ezio Rizzardo and San Thang he is a co-developer of the RAFT process.
In 2012 he received the ,[1][2] and was also elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science.[3]
In 2014, he shared the ATSE Clunies-Ross Award with San Thang and Ezio Rizzardo.[2]
