About the ICPC
8th ICPC New Date: May 21-24, 2023
The International Conference on Polyolefin Characterization (ICPC) was born to satisfy the need for an international conference specifically focused on polyolefin characterization, since by then most of the existing polyolefin conferences dealt with catalyst and reaction engineering.
The ICPC Conference covers different aspects of Polyethylene (PE) and Polypropylene (PP) molecular architecture characterization, including molar mass distribution (GPC/SEC), comonomer incorporation and distribution, long chain branching, crystallinity, and rheological properties.
Being organized by Polymer Char, ICPC previous editions have been celebrated in Houston, TX, U.S.A. in 2006, in Valencia, Spain in 2008 and in Shanghai, China in 2010, covering this way the whole world map and becoming the truly unique international conference on the field of polyolefin characterization. After successful previous editions in Houston, Valencia and Shanghai, the fourth edition was hosted in 2012 again in Texas, as a leading center in the field of polyolefin research.
With attendees coming from over 25 countries and from the leading polyolefin players, around 35 lectures and 40 poster presentations in the last editions, ICPC unifies the participation of researchers from both industry and academia throughout all the continents, becoming the unique platform for learning, sharing and networking. ICPC is supported by many petrochemicals, research, and instrumentation manufacturing leaders.
