SCI Composites 2017- New Materials & Designs, New Uses & Strategies

Organised by:

 SCI’s Material Chemistry Group

London, SCI

Registration Closed

This event is no longer available for registration.

Synopsis
This meeting will be of huge interest to all those involved in Composites, from manufacture and use to research and development. It will include aspects of: fibres & fillers; matrix compounds; surfaces & interfaces and mechanical properties in applications as wide ranging as aerospace, automotive, biomedical and electronic industries plus end-of-life strategies.
Attendees
The meeting will bring together people working in all facets of composites - commercial, scientific and technical - and will offer a one-stop opportunity to update on the latest developments and to network and partner with representatives from all aspects of the field.
It will therefore be of interest to scientists, engineers, R&D and fund managers, strategists and anyone else requiring an overview or update on composites science and technology, for example, for CPD purposes or for sales and marketing background.
