In 1930 Landsteiner was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in recognition
Karl Ziegler copolymers of ethylene and propylene. Soon the scientific community was informed of his discovery. Highly crystalline and stereoregular polymers that previously could not be prepared became synthetically feasible. For their work on the controlled polymerization of hydrocarbons through the use of these novel organometallic catalysts, Karl Ziegler and Giulio Natta shared the 1963 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Karl Ziegler received many awards and honors. The following highlights some of the most significant awards: Karl Ziegler Karl Waldemar Ziegler (November 26, 1898 – August 12, 1973) was a German chemist who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1963, with Giulio
