Chemical
Thermodynamics
17–21
August 2004, Beijing, China
The
IUPAC International Conference on Chemical Thermodynamics
(ICCT) has been held biennially since 1969. It has
become a pageant for scientists from around the world working
in broad areas of chemical thermodynamics.
The
18th International Conference on Chemical Thermodynamics (2004)
is organized by the Chinese Chemical Society and is jointly
sponsored by IUPAC and a newly established organization, the
International Association of Chemical Thermodynamics. The
conference will be held in Beijing, China from 17–21
August 2004. It consists of a Rossini lecture, plenary lectures,
invited lecturers, oral presentations, and poster sessions
covering all the aspects of recent experimental, theoretical,
simulation, and applied developments in chemical thermodynamics.
A special focus will be on the interdisciplinary research
fields.
Topics
will include electrolyte and non-electrolyte solution thermodynamics;
new materials (including polymers); phase equilibrium, supercritical
fluids, and separation technologies; biological, medical,
pharmaceutical, agricultural & food sciences; colloid
and interface science; non-equilibrium thermodynamics, statistical
thermodynamics, and molecular simulation; thermochemistry
and molecular energetics; industrial thermodynamics and data
bases; thermodynamic frontiers and education (workshop); ionic
liquids (workshop); and new experimental techniques, including
nanotechnology (workshop).
An exhibition of scientific instruments and equipment by leading
manufacturers, and also of books and journals, will take place
during the conference. Interested companies should contact
the Secretariat of ICCT-2004.
The
conference will be held at Fragrant Hill Hotel. It is a four-star
hotel located in the famous scenic Fragrant Hill Park. For
young scientists (postdocs and students) there is a more economical
hotel: Fragrant Hill Villa.
All
participants are requested to complete the registration form
(available online) and mail it to the Secretariat by 30 April
2004. Reduced registration fees are available for a restricted
number of participants from East European and developing countries.
