Wear-Resistant Plastics 2018

Memo

Wear-Resistant Plastics is a new two-day conference that will focus on the critical area of polymer tribology, and explore how it can open up new applications, particularly in metal replacement. The event will be held at the Nikko Hotel in Düsseldorf, Germany on 19-20 September 2018. Industry experts will discuss innovative methods for optimising the wear and friction properties of plastics components. The comprehensive programme will cover wear-resistant polymers and the use of additives for modifying tribological performance. Expert speakers will discuss materials selection and design optimisation for wear-resistant plastic components such as gears, bearings, conveyors wheels and seals. They will cover a variety of critical applications in markets including the industrial, oil and gas, electrical, automotive, aerospace and medical sectors.  In addition to the busy programme of informative presentations, the event will provide excellent networking opportunities during the refreshment breaks and evening drinks reception, which will take place in a dedicated exhibition area.
