Center for the Study of Polymeric Systems AnnualMeeting - 2008
02.19.08


You are cordially invited to attend the Annual Research Symposium of the Center for the Study of Polymeric Systems, CSPS, at Penn State University April 14, 2008. The CSPS specializes in the synthesis, characterization, modeling, and processing of polymeric materials and has faculty from the Departments of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science and Engineering.

Center personnel have investigated many different issues related to the making and processing of polymers. The Center serves the interests of scientists and engineers involved in the design, control, and operation of processes such as the production of films, coating, paints, membranes, foams, composites, polymer reactors, and devolatilization. Check our web page to learn more about the Center: http://www.csps.psu.edu


On April 14 we will hold our Annual Research Symposium at the Penn Stater Hotel and Conference Center. This is the forum where we discuss the current activities in the Center and plans for the future. This is an opportunity for you and your colleagues to attend presentations by and have discussions with our faculty and students. In addition we will have lunch together providing time for additional interactions.


The Symposium has been scheduled in conjunction with Materials Day which is an annual event at Penn State with over 300 faculty, students and guests gathered to discuss the latest advances and trends in materials research. These events occur on April 14 and 15. You can learn more about Materials Day at https://www.mri.psu.edu/Events/MaterialsDay/2008/index.asp The Center symposium will occur on the morning of April 14 and leave you free to attend the rest of Materials Day events.


This is your commitment-free opportunity to participate in our Annual Research Symposium (see the tentative agenda). Please RSVP to cole@matse.psu.edu with any question. Note that separate registrations are required for the Annual Research Symposium and the Materials Day events.
Looking forward to meeting with you,


Ron Danner and Coray Colina
