In an emailed press release, the Association for Materials Protection and Performance recently issued a call for abstracts regarding its new conference.
Slated to take place in 2022, the AMPP Conference and Expo will reportedly bring together SSPC’s Coatings+ and NACE International’s CORROSION Conference and Expo to better serve as the leading global source of knowledge, innovation, networking and collaboration for those in the coatings and corrosion industry.
The Conference and Expo will take place in San Antonio, Texas, March 6-10, 2022, and is expected to feature 500 technical paper presentations across 46 different topics touching every major industry.
Submissions and Key Deadlines
According to AMPP, all levels of coatings and corrosion experts are encouraged to submit an abstract for consideration. However, before submitting, interested individuals have been asked to confirm whether their company/institution will allow them to travel (aside from any COVID-19 restrictions) to the conference should their work be chosen to be presented.
