The Conference
The International Conference on Polyolefin Characterization (ICPC) was born with the need of an international conference specifically focused on Polyolefin Characterization, as most of the existing Polyolefin conferences deal with catalyst and reaction engineering.
Being organized by Polymer Char, the ICPC Conference covers different aspects on polyolefin molecular architecture characterization, including molar mass distribution, comonomer incorporation and distribution, long chain branching, crystallinity and rheological properties. The Technical Program covers the following areas:
· Separation and Fractionation.
- · Molecular Structure and Properties.
- · Morphology and Thermal Analysis.
- · Rheology.
- · Spectroscopy.
The conference is held biannually, and is intended for new and experienced researchers working on polyolefin characterization in industry and academia.
The 1st ICPC Conference was held in Houston, TX, U.S.A. in 2006. 112 attendees from 18 countries attended to this edition. The Technical Program consisted of 31 oral presentations and 29 poster presentations.
The 2nd ICPC Conference was held in Valencia, Spain, in 2008 and more than 120 attendees were received in Valencia from 24 countries throughout the world. Abstracts submission requests increased significantly and finally 35 oral presentations and 38 poster presentations fit in the technical program of the conference, to keep the same length than in 1st ICPC edition in 2 days and a half to discuss the most innovative techniques and latest research in the field of the polyolefin characterization in the following areas:
The 3rd ICPC celebrated in Shanghai, China in 2010, represented the ICPC Conference consolidation with the participation of the top scientists of the Polyolefin Analysis industry and leading petrochemical and research institutions worldwide.
The 4th International Conference on Polyolefin Characterization will be held in Houston, TX, United States in October 22 - 24, 2012. Additionally, A Short Course on Polyolefin Characterization techniques is scheduled on at the same venue on October 21st, in the same venue where the ICPC Conference is taking place.
