The Society of Chemical Industry in association with the Polymer Centre presents Bioplastics, Processing and Properties 2011 at the Hilton Hotel, Sheffield, UK, on 6 October 2011.
Here delegates will discover the latest in biorenewable polymer materials and find out how to adopt them in their products and processes. The conference will provide a forum for producers, processors, end-users and researchers in the area of biopolymers.
The one day meeting will focus on the industrial utilisation of biorenewable polymers. This will allow key business people from the plastics and packaging industry, and scientists involved in bioplastics research and applications development, to gain an overview of bioplastic processing and properties, focusing on commercially available bioplastics such as Poly Lactic Acid (PLA) and Poly Hydroxy Alkanoate (PHA).
