Materials and Austceram 2009 (July 1-3 2009)
Materials Australia and the Australian Ceramic Society (ACS) invite you to attend their combined biennial international conference, Materials and Austceram 2009, to be held on the Gold Coast from July 1- 3, 2009.

The International Conference and Exhibition on Materials and AustCeram 2009 (MA2009) will be held on 1-3 July, 2009 in Gold Coast. This the third time that Materials Australia (former Institute of Materials Engineering Australasia) and the Australian Ceramic Society have joined forces to run this biennial conference. MA2009 will bring together leading scientists, technologists and engineers from all the Asia-Pacific countries to discuss contemporary results on discoveries and innovations in the rapidly evolving field of materials science and technology. These topics underpin the existing and emerging materials and processing and will influence our near-term financial impact.

The topics of this conference include:

  • advanced ceramics
  • advanced composites and nanostructured materials
  • automotive materials and their applications
  • biomaterials
  • computer simulation and modeling
  • energy storage materials
  • engineering polymers and blends
  • functional nanopores
  • lightweight alloys
  • thin films and functional materials
  • materials processing and characterisation
  • processing of steels
  • structural integrity and failure
  • surface engineering
  • sustainable materials

8th Pacific Rim Conference on Ceramic and Glass Technology - PACRIM8
The PACRIM8 is the eighth in a series of international conferences that provide a forum for information exchange on the latest emerging ceramic and glass technologies. Beginning in 1993, PACRIM conferences have established a strong reputation for facilitating global dialogue with leading experts.

The forthcoming Pacific Rim Conference on Ceramic and Glass Technology in Vancouver, is the eighth in a series of international conferences that provide a forum for the presentations and information exchange on emerging ce­ramic and glass technologies. The conference series began in 1993 and was last held in 2007 in Shanghai, China, under the organization of the Chinese Ceramic Society and the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Prior to this, The American Ceramic Society (ACerS) organized PACRIM6 in 2005 in Maui, Hawaii. Over the years, PACRIM conferences have established a strong reputation for state-of-the-art presentations, information exchange on the latest emerging technologies and facilitating global dialogue and discussion with leading world experts.

Unified Internatinal Technical Conference on Refractories 2009 - UNITECR2009
UNITECR is a biennial international conference that is conducted by one of its four "Founding Member Organizations" in odd-number years. The official oversight body is the UNITECR International Executive Board (IEB), composed of representatives of the Founding Member Organizations and certain individuals, who are elected to the IEB as Distinguished Life Members. IEB is governed under Bylaws. established by its members.

The objective of the UNITECR IEB is to organize the biennial UNITECR and any other meetings with a view to maintain and develop its activities and generally to contribute to the progress and exchange of industrial knowledge and technologies concerning refractories.

UNITECR will be held from October 13 -16, 2009 at the Pestana Bahia Hotel in Salvador, Brazil.
