WASHINGTON, D.C. -- This years Polyurethanes Technical Conference will showcase the important role various polyurethane insulations have in improving energy efficiency throughout the building and construction industry. The Center for the Polyurethanes Industrys (CPI) 2012 Polyurethanes Technical Conference will take place Sept. 24 to 26 at the Omni Hotel at CNN Center in Atlanta.
"Rigid polyurethane insulations, including spray foam, pour-in-place foam and polyisocyanurate foam, can help reduce energy use in homes and other buildings, which is advantageous for builders, architects and homeowners," said Lee Salamone, Senior Director of CPI. "Continuous technical advances in polyurethane chemistry continue to make rigid polyurethane foam even more effective. During the conference, attendees will learn more about the latest blowing agents that are designed to help improve the energy efficiency offered by these insulations and seek to decrease environmental impacts."
The 2012 Polyurethanes Technical Conference will feature more than 60 technical presentations, providing both construction and polyurethane industry leaders and professionals with an opportunity to hear about the latest technical innovations and issues affecting the global polyurethanes industry. This years conference includes two technical sessions focused on construction-related topics, in addition to a session focused on sustainability issues that will examine life-cycle considerations for polyurethane products in buildings.
In addition to the technical sessions, this years conference also features CPIs popular Polyurethane Professional Development Program. Course topics include introductory polyurethane chemistry; technology; markets and applications; adhesives and sealants; coatings and elastomers; equipment; raw materials, testing, specifications and performance; and physical testing of foams. CPI will also present its annual Polyurethane Innovation Award during the conferences closing session.
Registration for the 2012 Polyurethanes Technical Conference is now open. Several sponsorship opportunities, including table top exhibition space, are still available. In addition, poster submissions will be accepted through Aug. 22.
