The Oleochemistry Conference is officially happening this autumn, and registration is now open!
From Oils and Fats to Polymeric Materials: Innovations and Applications
This premier symposium brings together leading academic and industrial experts from across the world working at the forefront of bio-based polymers, surfactants, emulsions, and sustainable materials.
📅 When: 22 - 23 September 2026
📍 Where: Amsterdam, Netherlands
💡 Chairs: Dr. Sylvain Caillol (ICGM Montpellier, FR) & Prof. Andriy Voronov (North Dakota State University, US)
Program Highlights & Key Features
The program bridges fundamental polymer chemistry and colloidal systems with applied industrial developments. Here is a sneak peek at the cutting-edge sessions lined up for 22 September 2026:
🧪 Vitrimers & Sustainable Networks: Discover progress from biomass to vitrimers with Prof. Audrey Llevot (Bordeaux University) and phenolic lipid-derived vitrimers for additive manufacturing with Prof. Sara Dalle Vacche (Politecnico di Torino).
⚙️ Catalysis & Eco-Friendly Pathways: Learn about homogeneous catalysis routes to polyols with Prof. Sebastien Tilloy, and natural oils paired with $CO_2$ for non-isocyanate polyurethane foams and coatings with Dr. Lourdes Irusta Maritxalar.
🔄 Circular Bioeconomy & Filtration: Explore upcycling waste streams from vegetable oil processing with Youssef Habibi, alongside sessions on batch filtration challenges in the oleochemical and biodiesel industries with Dr. Bart Scholten.
💄 Cosmetics & Functional Monomers: Dive into the challenges of using PEG, PTMEG, and Polyglycerol esters in cosmetics with Dr. Jean-David Rodier, and the functionalization of oils and fatty acids for eco-friendly plastic additives with Dr. Claire Negrell.
🧬 Polymers & Elastomers: Examine the mini-emulsion copolymerization of plant-oil-based acrylic monomers with Dr. Larisa Tsarkova, and the development of vegetable oils for elastomer plasticization with Dr. Veronique Bounor Legare.
This event offers a platform for cross-disciplinary exchange, allowing you to engage in vital dialogue between academia and industry to accelerate innovation in sustainable soft matter. Additionally, it provides an unmissable global networking opportunity to connect with top minds driven by Euro Fed Lipid and Oils & Fats International.
