Elast­omers World Sum­mits 2024 set to fea­ture lead­ing industry experts

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 – 20^th Novem­ber, these co-loc­ated events will provide exclus­ive insights on the market.

Sil­ic­one Elast­omers World Summit:

With speak­ers from dis­tin­guished com­pan­ies like 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

Ther­mo­plastic Elast­omers World Summit:

Com­pan­ies present­ing at TPE include 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
