NINE PRE-CONFERENCE TUTORIALS BEFORE MAIN CONFERENCE
¨ Nine pre-conference tutorials will be
part of the ACC 2012. Due to the great
success they had in 2010, two more
tutorials have been added.
This time there will be lectures on radiation curing, antimicrobial surfaces, easy-to-clean surfaces, waterborne high-performance, smart, antifouling and
anticorrosive coatings, polyurethanes,
and titanium dioxide.
The pre-conference tutorials will be
held before the main conference, offering
attendees concise updates on major topics in the field. Renowned experts from
both industry and academia will present
the 90-minute tutorials to give participants basic knowledge on important areas in coating technology.
The lectures will include the following:

Cenomic™ 3 – sustainable and efficient. Bühler provides unique expertise
in the field of wet grinding and dispersing technology. With its new full-volume bead mill Cenomic™ 3, Bühler presents a solution that cuts costs
in the production of protective coatings, paints, gravure inks and many
other fields. The system also helps in achieving higher productivity from
smaller mill volumes with an optimum flow capacity. Furthermore, due to
the minimal specific energy requirements, the Cenomic™ 3 provides an
efficient and sustainable solution for your wet grinding and dispersing
processes.

Cenomic™ 3 High productivity: EcoMizer™ grinding discs not only accelerate the beads more fficiently but also make sure that the product remains in the process chamber longer. Operationally safe: The SCS™ bead separation system in combination with the large surface of the SuperScreen guarantees high flow rates with outstanding process safety. Longest service life: All surfaces of the process chamber which come into contact with the product, are designed as individually exchangeable components manufactured from wear-resistant materials for an extended service life.
Innovations for a better world.
