Elastomers World Summits 2024 set to feature leading industry experts

     The "home" of the global elastomers industry will take place on 19-20 November in Vienna, Austria.
Both Thermoplastic Elastomers and Silicone Elastomers World Summit bring together manufacturers, processors, end-users, designers and researchers for a summit-style technical discussion of silicone and TPE elastomer materials, global markets, processing advancements and novel applications. Taking place on 19-20th November, these co-located events will provide exclusive insights on the market.
Silicone Elastomers World Summit:
With speakers from distinguished companies like Renault Group, Dow Silicones, Miele, ECO USA, ENGEL and more, the agenda is bursting with insights to help shape this year’s summit to be the best one to date.
 

The 2024 conference will have a significant focus on innovation and will include application insights on process technology. We shall also be exploring brand material requirements with insights from Miele and Renault. 
Presentations include:
-    Requirements for silicone materials used in household appliances and medical devices
-    Regulating silicones: EU legislation going global?
-    Silicone Elastomers in the energy evolution
-    Tailoring the adhesion properties of silicone surfaces by VUV light
-    Thermally conductive silicones with fumed aluminum oxide additives
-    Release agents for silicone rubber processing
-    Influence of recycled material on the mechanical properties of high consistency silicone rubber
-    Critical Parameters in Molding Machine Selection for LSR Molding
-    New inhibition technology for (Pt)-cured silicones (LSR and HCR) to optimise the processing window without changing material properties
-    Removing substances of very high concern in silicones with the Planetary Roller Extruder
-    Smartshot E: the first all-electric valve gate cold runner system for liquid silicone processing
TPE:
Companies presenting at TPE include Renault Group, Decathlon, ALLOD, Leartiker, Teknor Apex plus many more.
 

Presentations will include: 
-    Comparison of renewable and standard process oils for polymer, tpe and elastomer applications
-    Virtual product development of a TPE-based anti-vibration component for Electric Vehicle applications
-    Replacing silicone elastomers in sport goods applications with thermoplastic elastomers to help reduce the environmental impact of our products
-    Recycled TPE solutions and adhesion on to recycled PMMA, recycled PC/ABS, recycled PP
-    Sustainable TPE solutions – Combining weight saving with recycling content
-    Sustainable Automotive Innovation with High-Performance TPVs
-    Approach to sustainable, low carbon footprint, elastomer solutions matching to stringent regulatory needs in the healthcare industry
-    TPVs for 3D Printing Based on Blends of PLA with EVM-GMA and ENR
-    Dynamic Production Process Control using Dielectric In-Mold Monitoring and AI
