IPCG Research Conference 2013

The International Polymer Colloid Group (IPCG) was founded in 1972 as a forum for exchange of ideas and to share emerging research results among scientists and engineers from both academia and industry who are working in the field of polymer colloids and latex systems. The biennial IPCG Research Conference 2013 will be held at Fudan University in Shanghai, PR China. This will be the first time that this well recognized international conference is being held in China, after 40 years of holding it at various locations in North America or Europe. The main purpose of the 2013 conference in Shanghai is to have an open discussion and dialog on various new aspects of polymer colloids and recent development in the related technologies and applications. Another purpose of the conference is to facilitate closer contacts between universities, research institutes and industries working on or using polymer colloids in China and the rest of the world, as well as to foster collaboration among researchers and practitioners who are involved in the field of polymer colloids in these world-wide organizations.
