Our conference in Ustroń coming soon :)

The Polish Carbon Society Conference "Carbon Materials and Polymer Composites, Science-Industry 2025" will be held for the sixteenth time. The aim of the conference is to present current research results and development trends in the area of ​​obtaining, testing and applying carbon materials and polymer composites, as well as raw materials used for their production. The conference in Ustroń is an opportunity to meet scientists and practitioners related to the broadly understood topic of carbon.

The conference will be held on April 8-11, 2025 in Ustroń. The conference location is the same as always, i.e.: Guesthouse Jawor, ul. Wczasowa 51, Ustroń Jaszowiec.

The conference begins on April 8, 2025 (Tuesday) with dinner at 6 p.m. and ends on Friday, April 11, 2025 after dinner at 12 p.m. 28 papers are planned to be presented and 35 posters to be presented. Papers are planned for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday morning. A music meeting is planned for Wednesday, and a Board Meeting, PTW Audit Committee Meeting, and a gala dinner are planned for Thursday.
