LOOKING BACK AT THE CONFERENCE

CNPComp2013 continues a series of successful conferences on carbon based nanocomposites that originated from the European research network CNT-NET and has been held every two years alternating between Hamburg and Cambridge, the base towns of the two main initiators of the conference series. Due to the upcoming retirement of Karl Schulte, the conference 'moves up the Elbe river' and the meetings in Germany will be organized in Dresden from now on.

Again, the conference shall gather the international scientific community working in the field of carbon nanotube, graphene, or other nanocarbon filled composites. These materials are summarized as carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) which explains the change from the conference title CNTComp (so far) to CNPComp (starting in 2013). The conference provides the forum where the latest results and findings in the field will be presented and offers researchers from both academic institutions and industry a great opportunity to exchange knowledge, make contacts and engage in discussions. Participation of younger scientists, also with oral presentations, is explicitly encouraged.

Chairpersons: Petra Pötschke (Dresden, D) and Alan H. Windle (Cambridge, UK)

The CNPComp2013 conference will be organized by the Leibniz-Institut für Polymerforschung Dresden (Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research Dresden) and held at the campus of the Technische Universität Dresden (Bergstr. 66, 01069 Dresden, building CHE).
