range of raw materials and processes for
the formulation of coatings, inks, adhesives, sealants and construction chemicals. Approximately 160 selected papers
in 25 sessions will present scientific and
technical insights on how to address
today´s challenges of increasing customer
and legislative demands for both enhanced coatings performance and greater
environmental benefit.
The eleventh edition of the European
Coatings Congress again promises to be a
highlight. Congress participants can visit a
variety of lectures at a total of 25 sessions.
The program ranges from architectural
coatings, wood coatings, protective coatings, automobile coatings, smart coatings,
sustainability and biobased coatings, powder coatings, marine coatings, waterborne
coatings, pigments, production processes,
radiation curing, functional materials,
novel materials, polyurethanes and nanotechnology to adhesives and sealants,
construction chemicals and printing inks.
The best presentation at the congress will
receive the European Coatings Award
again in 2011, which includes a prestigious sculpture and prize money of
€2,000.
