Aubert “Aubie” Coran
SARASOTA, Fla. Aubert Aubie Coran, the 1995 recipient of the ACS Rubber Division s Charles Goodyear Medal, died Oct. 20 in Sarasota. He was 88.
Coran pioneered work in thermoplastic elastomers and delayed action accelerated sulfur vulcanization during a 36-year career at Monsanto Co., leading to his receiving the Rubber Division s highest honor.
During his time at Monsanto, he helped develop a number of materials, including Santoprene, Santogard PVI and Vocol accelerator for vulcanization. His research also delved extensively into the vulcanization of rubber with sulfur and accelerators. Although there have been many other contributions over the years to our understanding of vulcanization chemistry, it seems clear that he played the leading role in the remarkable progress made since about 1960, A.N. Gent wrote in a letter supporting Coran s nomination for the medal.
