RSC Speciality Chemicals Symposium 2010: Elements of Success – F, S, B and Li

Title:

RSC Speciality Chemicals Symposium 2010: Elements of Success – F, S, B and Li

Introduction:

Fluorine, sulfur, boron and lithium derivatives are widely used in the speciality chemicals industry for the manufacture of niche products with very specific applications. On the first day of the symposium two sessions will be held with the morning session dedicated to fluorine and the afternoon session to sulfur, both elements of strategic importance to the speciality chemicals industry. The second day will be devoted to sessions on the use of boron and lithium chemistry in speciality chemicals production. Each session will include presentations related to new commercial developments either from a synthesis, manufacturing, use or market application viewpoint.

ATTENDANCE AT THE SYMPOSIUM IS FREE & DELEGATES CAN PICK AND CHOOSE WHICH LECTURES THEY ATTEND

The Symposium will be held in conjunction with the Chemspec Europe and Chemsource Exhibitions organised by Quartz Business Media to be held at Messe Berlin, Germany on 9 and 10 June 2010. The symposium and exhibitions will attract a broad range of visitors from across the fine and speciality chemicals industry.

Lectures will take place between 10.30 and 15.45 on 9 June and 10.00 and 14.30 on 10 June allowing delegates ample time to visit the concurrent Chemspec Europe and Chemsource Exhibitions.

The conference will be run alongside the Chemspec Europe and the Chemsource Exhibitions.
