INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
MATERIALS IMPERATIVES IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM
(MINM 2010), Cairo, Egypt
29.11.2010 - 02.12.2010
First Circular and Call for Papers
Materials are essential for the economic growth of any country. They provide support to the down-stream industries and the entire industrial development of the nation. Maximization of the use of materials would result in an increase of the added value as new products could be obtained from the materials and its processing intermediates. During the last two decades, new technologies have been developed in the areas of material processing which allow its utilization in advanced applications. However, the intermediates require further purification to produce advanced materials for advanced industrial applications. Scientific collaboration among scientists from a variety of disciplines can help in better understanding of the material processing and utilization. R&D should focus on developing cost effective techniques to develop and utilize materials for solving the problems facing the world during the new millennium such as energy, environment, climate change, food and water supply.
In this regard, the International Conference on Material Imperatives in the New Millennium (MINM 010) has been initiated by the Central Metallurgical Research and Development Institute (CMRDI), Cairo, Egypt to share experience and exchange views between scientists allover the world.
On the regional level, CMRDI being a base of the Arab Association of Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology, will arrange during the conference a regional meeting of the association to identify areas of the mutual cooperation between members and non-member countries, consequently the conference will be a good forum for coordination of joint efforts.
This conference will provide a good chance for participants to discuss and present the recent advances in processing technologies of materials and their subsequent manufacturing for production of ready-to-use products. The conference will be also an excellent opportunity for interaction and networking among participants for future collaboration.
