Future Characterization of Polymers – Where Precision Meets Innovation, a Seminar in cooperation with the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland (FHNW)

Join us for an exclusive seminar dedicated to state-of-the-art technologies in polymer processing and analysis to optimizing every step. Modern polymer processing is a highly intricate, multi-step workflow that requires precise control at every stage — from raw material selection to final product testing. Variability in polymers, additives, processing conditions, and quality requirements presents significant challenges for manufacturers. Even minor deviations can lead to material waste, production inefficiencies, and costly product defects.

In collaboration with the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland (FHNW), Anton Paar experts will present innovative solutions that connect material structure, properties, and performance. The seminar combines FHNW’s academic perspective with Anton Paar’s application expertise and measurement workflows that support research, development, and quality control.

Why to attend:

• Reduce trial-and-error in development. Use targeted characterization to define process windows, compare formulations, and predict processing behavior more reliably.
• Improve process stability and product consistency. Understand how rheology and thermal behavior relate to processing outcomes, and how deviations can be identified earlier.
• Shorten root-cause analysis. Link flow, structure, and performance measurements to identify whether the cause is material composition, processing history, or structural changes.
• Get an applied view from both sides. Benefit from FHNW keynotes and Anton Paar application talks, plus time for discussion, demonstrations, and experience exchange.

What you can expect: 

• Application-oriented insights into polymer characterization across the value chain—raw materials, compounding, processing, and final product assessment
• A practical focus on measurement approaches that support everyday decisions in R&D and QC, including rheological and thermal methods
• Exposure to advanced techniques used to build structure–property correlations and support processing understanding
• Direct exchange with FHNW and Anton Paar specialists during demonstrations and discussions
   

This seminar is designed for engineers, scientists, and decision-makers from industry and academia who seek advanced methods to optimize polymer processing, improve material performance, and deepen their expertise in polymer analysis.

Agenda is enclosed below.
