International conference on foam technology and applications in thermoplastic and elastomeric products
5-6 April 2016, Renaissance Newark Airport Hotel, Newark, NJ
Organized by Applied Market Information LLC (AMI)
AMI's next global conference on foam technology and applications in thermoplastics and elastomers, Polymer Foam 2016, will
take place on April 5-6, 2016 at the Renaissance Newark Airport Hotel,
NJ, USA. It is conveniently located at one of the key New York
international airports, just 30 minutes by train to central NYC. The
event includes a focused exhibition where refreshment breaks and an
evening networking reception take place.
In the past few years concern for the environment and improved
performance/cost ratio, have driven foam markets into new products and
manufacturing innovation. From construction insulation, foamed pipe
and profiles, flooring and furnishing through to light-weighting of
automotive components and packaging reduction, foams are conquering more
of the plastics processing marketplace adding reduced material use to
cut costs and transportation by reduced weight. In addition foams offer
impact performance, sound and thermal insulation, cushioning and other
valuable properties. What equipment is best? Which materials are
suitable? How controllable is the structure? What chemical blowing
agent or physical foaming process is best? Can existing equipment be
adapted for foaming? These are some of the hot topics at Polymer Foam 2016.
The conference program aims to highlight valuable R&D. Polymer Foam 2016 will
give attendees the chance to network and discuss foam production
technology and markets and applications of cellular polymer materials
with some of the most influential professionals in the industry and in
research.
