We are one month away from Envalior’s Advanced Materials Forum (AMF) North America, and we are very excited to offer you the opportunity to attend this free 100% online event on Wednesday, Nov. 17.

The AMF North America will gather the brightest minds in materials science to give you the latest best practices and applications insights in the industry, along with cutting-edge innovations and advancements in the automotive, medical, water contact, consumer goods and electronics industries.

Registered attendees will receive complimentary access to every session, as well as on-demand access to the presentation recordings and many of the presentations following the event. 

Materials Science & Innovation Insights

The online event features education-building resources, including sessions targeting two tracks:

• Material Science Innovation
• Innovation Insights

Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the latest material science innovations, including advancing the circular economy with bio-based or recycled materials, and low carbon solutions. Also learn about thermoplastic material solutions for electric vehicle applications and material science for hydrogen fuel cells. You can also explore PA66 alternatives, advanced modeling of reinforced thermoplastics, advanced tools for color development, and more.

In the Innovation Insights track, experts will discuss key material trends in the healthcare, water contact, and automotive segments. Learn about optimizing thermoplastic gear design, improving vehicle air management performance, material science for 5G connectivity, plus more. You will hear from industry veterans that have seen it all and get their perspective on the future of material science.
