Professor Wulff Possart, Director of the Chair of Adhesion and Interphases in Polymers at Saarland University, has been awarded the “Prix Dedale 2013” by the French Adhesion Society for his scientific work in the field of adhesion research. This internationally coveted award was presented on 6 December 2013 at the annual “Journées d’Etude sur l’Adhesion”. The renowned “Prix Dedale”, which has been presented every two years since the foundation of the Society at the beginning of the 1990s, is not the first accolade that Possart has received for his outstanding achievements in the field of adhesion research. In 2012, he was the first German scientist to receive the highly renowned US-American “Award for Excellence in Adhesion Science”. In addition, Possart is a bearer of the Wake Memorial Medal, which was presented to him by the British Society for Adhesion and Adhesives in 2008.
