Latin America. Between September 28, 29 and 30, conferences and activities will be held to expand the knowledge and business network of the attendees.
"Innovation as an engine of recovery", is the title that accompanies the announcement of the technical conferences organized by the National Association of Manufacturers of Paints and Inks (Anafapyt), whose official poster is already public one month after the event.
On Wednesday, September 28, after the welcome cocktail, an enlivened dinner will be held at the Fiesta Americana hotel in Guadalajara, the place of the rest of the days.
The next day, both the inauguration and a panel of experts will be held in the Tulip Hall and Dalia Hall, along with a series of conferences in English and Spanish. Speakers include Nelson Satoque of Wacker Polymers, who will talk about vinyl ethylene acetate (VAE) polymers for architectural paints.
Later Mario German, from Evonik, will be presented with the conference "Taking the heat: resins for high temperatures". In her wake, Beatriz Araujo Cortes, from Dow, will address the issue of state-of-the-art silicone resins, "high-performance sustainable solutions".
Later, Eduardo Santana, from Hexion, will present about emulsions for outdoor architectural paints with excellent resistance to fouling and reduced leaching of biocides. For his part, Dante I. Flores, by Anton Paar, will provide mechanical surface analysis; adhesion, hardness and elastic modulus.
Likewise, Petero Orizondo, from FQC, will focus on fibrillated cellulose: "unparalleled stabilizer and potentiator of film properties in aqueous formulations".
The day will conclude with a tour of the Casa Sauza and a mariachi show and folkloric ballet.
The next and last day of the event, Gerardo Bautista Méndez, from Wackler, will refer to hybrid resins modified for protection of industrial floors, "specialized technology with properties". At the same time, in the other room, Bruno Soares Dário, from Oxiteno, will stop at surfactants as dispersing agents, dispersion evaluation and performance in the final application.
At the end of the day, Gabriela Vargas Domínguez, from BYK, will focus on increasing productivity in the manufacture of paints through the preparation of titanium dioxide slurries and mineral fillers. At the same time, Professor Ricardo Santillán Pérez, from the National Polytechnic Institute (IPN), will present on anticorrosive acrylic films (synthesis with high solids rate).
