The voice for professional people working with the science and engineering of rubber materials
The Rubber in Engineering Group, a committee of The Polymer Society, organises regular meetings and conferences on the theme of understanding the use of elastomers as engineering materials
For the last year the RIEG committee has been running its planning meetings online. Today (19 March) we nearly had a full house with 21 of us on the call (two more joined but had broken cameras). We planned our next three webinars, the first on 18 June on Elastomers Used in Infrastructure, the second on 17 September on Elastomer use in Additive Manufacture and the third on 10 December on Elastomer use in Acoustic Applications.
This webinar will unpack the major packaging reform consultations and explore the material-specific opportunities and challenges.
Exploring the use of elastomers in the public and private infrastructure surrounding our society
