Cincinnati hosts Rubber Division.The Rubber Division of the American Chemical Society The American Chemical Society (ACS) is a learned society (professional association) based in the United States that supports scientific inquiry in the field of chemistry. Founded in 1876 at New York University, the ACS currently has over 160,000 members at all degree-levels and in will hold its 158th Technical Meeting and Mini Expo at the Dr. Albert B. Sabin Sa·bin , Albert Bruce 1906-1993. American microbiologist and physician who developed a live-virus vaccine against polio (1957), replacing the killed-virus vaccine invented by Jonas Salk. Cincinnati Convention Center in Cincinnati, OH, October 17-20. Over 250 companies are scheduled to exhibit. Some 4,000 scientists, engineers, research and development, purchasing, production, technical service and management personnel are expected to visit the Mini Expo. Rubber industry suppliers of raw materials, machinery, equipment, testing instruments and rubber products will be featured at the Mini Expo. Exhibitors will display the latest advances in the fields of raw materials and auxiliaries, machinery and processing techniques, and testing and analytical equipment. In addition, a designated area, "Beyond the Life Cycle," will display the progress being made in products and processes in the industry's search for the right performance, quality and cost effective solutions to meet the challenging recycling and re-incorporation levels sought by the vehicle platform teams and the rubber manufacturers worldwide. Researchers, specialists and industrial technologists will be reporting on the latest scientific and technical advances in the field of elastomers through the technical program. Symposia will include: Thermoplastic elastomers; Elastomer composites; Applications of liquid and low viscosity rubbers; New commercial developments; Engineering design of rubber components; New developments in packaging and handling; Peroxide curing of elastomers; and Rubber recycling.
