Micromeritics is participating as a "Gold" sponsor in
Carbon2010 - the Annual World Conference on Carbon. The American Carbon Society
will hold Carbon2010 in the United States at the Conference Center and Inn at
Clemson University, located on the shores of beautiful Lake Hartwell in the
foothills of South Carolina's Blue Ridge Mountains.
"From Nano to Macro" is the theme for Carbon2010. "Even as advances in the
nanoforms of carbon -- graphenes, nanotubes, and fullerenes -- continue to
reveal exciting new applications, there has been a resurgence of interest in
bulk carbon materials, driven by increased demand in areas such as energy and
transportation," said Dr. Mark Thies, Clemson Professor of Chemical Engineering
and Conference Chair.
In business since 1962, Micromeritics has provided materials characterization
instrumentation and applications support to most of the world's top industrial
companies and academic institutions for fundamental research, product
development, quality assurance and control, production, and process control
applications. Two oral presentations highlighting Micromeritics' recent advances
in carbon characterization will be given. In addition to its Gold Sponsorship,
Micromeritics will be hosting the Welcome Reception on Sunday evening.
