On May 17th, the 26th
Annual Conference on Recent Advances in Flame Retardancy of Polymeric Materials will welcome scientific and
technical specialists to the premier fire retardant event in the industry.
Scheduled at the Sheraton Stamford Hotel (Connecticut) May 17-20, the
conference not only provides participants cutting-edge information about recent
innovations in the industry, but also terrific networking opportunities with
world-class experts and fellow professionals.
The
conference kicks off on Sunday, May 17th, with a one-day Short
Course that will acquaint industry newcomers with the evaluation and commercial
applications of flame retardants. The main conference from May 18-20 will
feature experts from around the globe who will share their latest research on
topics such as foams and fabrics, nanocomposites, and new technology. Evening
receptions on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday will offer attendees additional
networking opportunities during this vibrant four-day learning experience.
Prominent
speakers at this year’s highly anticipated event include Charles Wilkie,
(conference chairman, Marquette University), Dr. Matthew S. Blais (Fire
Technology Department, Southwest Texas Research Institute) and Marshall Moore
(Great Lakes Solutions). Overall, more than 40 informative sessions will offer a breadth of topics and
industries that strike a balance between academia and industry, including “Material
Selection Influence on the Flammability of Upholstered Furniture,”
“Reformulating Targeted Materials: How This Impacts Aerospace OEMs”, and
“Comparative Burn of Flat Panel Televisions from United States, Mexican and
Brazilian Markets.”
Professor Jaime C.
Grunlan appreciated last year’s conference so much, he’s back this year. “Flame 2014 was the most technically strong topical conference I
attended last year,” he says. “The networking was great and everything was very
well-organized. If you want to know about the latest breakthroughs in flame
retardant research, Flame 2015 is the conference to attend.”
We hope to see
you there!
