WORKSHOP ON
NANOMATERIALS
PRODUCTION, CHARACTERIZATION AND
INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

Milan, 3rd December 2008

In a world where products are becoming commoditised in many market sectors it is becoming increasingly difficult to sustain competitive advantage. Nanomaterials offer enormous potential to add value to brands, reinvigorate products nearing the end of their life, and create entirely new products to meet evolving needs. For manufacturers, nanomaterials can shorten the production process, saving energy and raw materials, and increase efficiency.The incorporation of nanomaterials into every-day products is forecast to play an increasingly crucial role across a diverse range of applications and market sectors including plastics, coatings, environmental treatments and healthcare.

This Workshop intends to offer to the stakeholders operating in the nanotechnlogy area an overview of the research progress on new nanomaterials and their relevant industrial applications.
It is organized by the Working Group on Chemical Nanotechnology of the Italian Chemical Society (SCI) and supported by The Italian Association of Chemical Engineering (AIDIC)
The Workshop is included in the II Conference on the "Programme N.I.C. - Nanotechnology in Chemical Industry" - promoted and organized by FEDERCHIMICA

The participation to the workshop is free.
