The symposium "Polymer Nanocomposites 2003" will be held on October 6-8, 2003, at the Industrial Materials Institute of the National Research Council of Canada in Boucherville (near Montreal), Quebec, Canada. It will include oral and poster presentations related to the following scientific and technological aspects of polymer matrix nanocomposites:
- Nano-reinforcements based on silicates (natural and synthetic) and carbon (nanotubes and nanofibres)
- Theoretical aspects of intercalation, exfoliation, dispersion
- Novel modification or exfoliation techniques
- Exfoliation of clays via melt processing
- Comparison of experiment and theory with respect to key properties of nanocomposites
One of the three days will be devoted to the rapidly developing subject of carbon reinforcements (nanotubes and nanofibres). It will include three plenary lectures by leading experts in the field.
