TRFA plans 2007 Annual Meeting.The Thermoset A polymer-based liquid or powder that becomes solid when heated, placed under pressure, treated with a chemical or via radiation. The curing process creates a chemical bond that, unlike a thermoplastic, prevents the material from being remelted. See thermoplastic. Resin Formulators Association (TRFA TRFA Thermoset Resin Formulators Association TRFA Time-Resolved Fluorescence Anisotropy TRFA Teachers' Retirement Fund Association TRFA Tidewater Regional Fire Academy TRFA Tasmanian Regional Forest Agreement (Australia) ) will hold its 2007 Annual Meeting September 9-11 at the Hyatt Regency in Savannah, GA. Attendees will learn about the latest technical developments, international industry expectations, regulatory news and more. The TRFA has scheduled technical papers, along with regulatory affairs updates, a tabletop showcase, meetings of TRFA's market focused committees and the association's annual business meeting. Terry S. McQuarrie of Glasforms will serve as chair of the TRFA 2007 Annual Meeting. McQuarrie has held the position of chairman of the Pultrusion Pultrusion is a continuous process of manufacturing of composite materials with constant cross-section whereby reinforcing fibers are pulled through a resin, possibly followed by a separate preforming system, and into a heated die, where the resin undergoes polymerization. Industry Council and chairman of the Composites Institute of the Society of the Plastics Industry Founded in 1937, The Society of the Plastics Industry Inc. is the trade association representing one of the largest manufacturing industries in the United States. SPI's members represent the entire plastics industry supply chain, including processors, machinery and equipment . TRFA members, industry leaders, suppliers, formulators, students and academicians are encouraged to attend this event. Technical presentations to be given during the conference will include the following: "Nanoparticle dispersions as unique additives for coatings," Denise Lindenmuth, Air Products & Chemicals; "Demonstration of military composites with low hazardous air pollutant content," John J. LaScala, Army Research Laboratory; "Fast curing polyurea sealants: Controllable reactivity with commercially available secondary amines amines (  mēnz´),n.pl organic compounds that contain nitrogen. ," Jay Johnston, Bayer Material Science; "Advances in intumescent technology," Philip S.
