Newsletter | Edition 2 | June 2021
This is the 2nd newsletter of Brightlands Polymer Days 2021 which will be held from November 7 – 9, 2021 in NH Conference Centre Koningshof in Veldhoven, The Netherlands.
With this newsletter, we would like to give you a sneak preview of the progress of Brightlands Polymer Days 2021.
You can read more about the conference here: https://polymerdays.brightlands.com/.
Brightlands Polymer Days 2021 is a series of scientific conferences in the field of polymer science and technology. It is a collaboration and organised by the Belgian Polymer Group, KNCV Macromolecular Division, PTN, the former Dutch Polymer Days and Brightlands Rolduc Polymer Conference. These partners have joined forces to start a new scientific conference where academia, from student to Nobel Prize winner, and industry can meet.
In this newsletter we would like to highlight one of the partners, Belgian Polymer Group. The Belgian Polymer Group is an organisation aiming at a better integration between research & industries, with as purpose providing new technologies in polymers. For more than 20 years, the Belgian Polymer Group organises an Annual Meeting, where all Belgian polymer research teams, both academic and industrial, meet during a two days event. This year, they have joined forces with the above-mentioned partners to organise an even larger international event and have three full days of diving into the world of polymers. More information is available here.
Abstract submission is still open. Do not miss this opportunity!

Prof. Dr. Brigitte Voit
She is the head of the chair Organic Chemistry of Polymers, the Department of Chemistry of the TU Dresden and leader of the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry at the Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research (IPF Dresden) in Dresden. She also is the Scientific Director of the IPF Dresden.
Brigitte Voit research field comprises different areas of polymer related science. She works on dendrimers and hyperbranched polymers, optical and thermo-sensitive polymer materials, graft and block copolymers, nanostructure formation via controlled polymer synthesis and efficient polymer analogous reactions. She is also interested in responsive and bioactive polymers and hydrogels, and worked on polymers for microelectronics and organic electronics.
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Matthias Wessling
Since 2010 Prof. Dr.-Ing. Matthias Wessling is the head of the Chair of Chemical Process Engineering (AVT.CVT). The core research field of the chair focuses on the development and application of membrane technology for current global challenges, particularly hybrid processes and electrochemical membrane reactors.
