The Society of Plastics Engineers is delighted to announce that it is accepting submissions of technical papers for SPE’s ANTEC™ 2009 Technical Program of the Color and Appearance Division. ANTEC™ 2009 for the first time will be held jointly with the National Plastics Exposition at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois, on June 22-24, 2009. ANTEC™ 2008 was very successful, and we expect to make it even better in 2009. To do that, we need you to participate by submitting your technical paper by November 14, 2008. Prior submission of an abstract is not necessary

 

Any paper related to the color and/or appearance of plastic will be considered. Appropriate topics might apply to one of these categories:

 

  • Color Measurement
  • Testing and Quality Control
  • Color Matching Techniques
  • Processing and Equipment
  • Materials (Colorants, Additives, Polymers)

  • Property Retention/Durability
  • Instrumentation and Test Methods
  • Regulatory Issues  
  • Color Trends
  • Decorative or Special Effects
  • Other Color/Appearance Related Topics 

The Process:
The paper submission and review process is managed entirely online, as follows:

• Authors submit their papers to an online database via a website. The database can accept virtually any type of electronically formatted document (PC and Mac formats). Go to the SPE homepage at www.4spe.org, and, under Conference/Events Tab, follow the link to ANTEC or go directly to http://www.4spe.org/conf/antec09/ , and click on “Call for Papers.”

• Submit your paper to the Color and Appearance Division. (Once the file is submitted to the website, it is automatically converted to an Adobe Acrobat PDF file.)

 

• The Author’s Release Form must be sent electronically upon paper submission.

• The SPE Technical Program Chairs and respective review committees conduct paper reviews via the paper-submission website. The reviewers then forward any necessary revision requests to the authors via email.

As you can see, the process for an ANTEC author is relatively easy. If you have not submitted a paper or made a presentation at ANTEC, please consider the possibility…it will be worth your efforts!
