coatings. In order to be eligible for this
award, one must be nominated. Each
candidate nomination is judged based
on the following criteria: technical accomplishment, service to the coatings
industry, product and/or technology
available to the industry, scope/im-pact, and presentation capability. This
award is presented annually at the
American Coatings CONFERENCE and the
Coatings Tech Conference.
