BIMac 2016
With the growing complexity of advanced technologies, the demand for tailored polymers is continuously increasing. Therefore, following the long-term tradition of Bratislava International Conferences on Macromolecules, this year the conference is going to cover research fields dealing with synthesis of macromolecules with controlled architecture, composition and functionality, development of advanced techniques for separation and characterization of the complex macromolecules, studies leading to understanding the polymerization mechanisms and kinetics as well as preparation of polymeric materials with controlled service lifetime. The BIMac 2016 provides opportunities for polymer scientists to share their experience and results in tailoring the polymeric materials architecture and properties, and establish new collaborations.
Motto: "May your molecules grow fast, but obediently..."
