TEHRAN – The seventeenth International Seminar on Polymer Science and Technology (ISPST 2026) will be held from November 17 to 19.
Jointly organized by Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic) and the Iran Polymer Science and Engineering Society, the occasion will present a platform for researchers and business professionals to current and talk about the most recent scientific and technological advances in the sector of polymer science, IRNA reported.
The seminar will focus on three particular themes: the appliance of synthetic intelligence in polymers, superior high-value-added polymers, and the round economic system in polymer science.
The convention may even function displays and discussions throughout a broad vary of specialised subjects, together with biopolymers; biocompatible polymers and tissue engineering; polymers, the surroundings, and sustainable improvement; polymer blends, composites, and nanocomposites; polymer physics and bodily chemistry; polymer fibers, movies, and membranes; polymer synthesis and characterization; rheology and polymer processing; rising purposes of polymers; resins, adhesives, and coatings; sensible and practical polymers; polymerization processes; in addition to modeling and simulation.
The seminar is anticipated to deliver collectively main teachers, researchers, and business consultants to trade information, foster collaboration, and discover modern options to present challenges and future alternatives in polymer science and know-how.
In January, the nationwide doc for the event of superior materials science and know-how was unveiled.
Approved by the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution in the Iranian yr 1403 (March 2024 – March 2025), President Masoud Pezeshkian signed and declared the doc on December 25, 2025, IRNA reported.
The nationwide doc acts as a complete roadmap for the promotion of superior supplies in the nation. It goals to enhance Iran’s place in the worldwide science and know-how enviornment and contributes to reaching sustainable improvement objectives.
Improving the nation’s rating in science and know-how, notably superior supplies and fashionable strategies for supplies processing, enhancing the export of knowledge-based merchandise in the superior supplies sector, boosting productiveness and reducing environmental impacts of Iranian-made merchandise, enhancing the standard of life and enhancing social impression, and finishing the worth chain with an strategy to decreasing uncooked materials gross sales are among the many most important targets of the doc.
