Commercial Applications for Inherently Conductive Polymers
This international seminar provides a state-of-the-art overview of inherently conductive polymers ("ICP"), and focuses on materials technology and applications that are being evaluated and implemented by industry leaders today. This conference is in its 11th year.

Overview
In 2000 the Nobel Prize in Chemistry went to three scientists--Alan Heeger, Hideki Shirakawa and Alan MacDiarmid for the discovery and development of Conductive Polymers. This innovation is being realized in commercially viable applications. ICPs have been proven to work in a variety of applications including batteries, capacitors, smart windows, light emitting diodes, transistors, photovoltaics, microlithography, corrosion control, conductive adhesives and inks, static dissipation, EMI shielding, radar/microwave absorption, electrostatic powder coating, and sensors. This conference will provide an overview of the latest technology, research and applications that are changing markets today.

Who should attend
Professionals interested in learning more about the state of the ICP market, current trends and innovations, implementations that have exponentially improved existing products and generated new products. The advantages of these conductive polymers compared to conventional semiconductors and conductive material technology are clear and will forever change the playing field.

Understand how your company can play a role in this powerful force that will shape how products are being created today and will impact markets tomorrow.
The seminar is intended for business managers, new product development managers, engineers, scientists, and technicians working in:

  • Conductive and ESD range coatings
