The American Coatings Association (ACA) is seeking submission of abstracts for its 2023 CoatingsTech Conference to be held June 26-27 in Cleveland, Ohio. This biennial conference features a multi-track forum, industry awards, and presentation opportunities for both industry professionals and students. It will follow the theme, “Coatings Technologies: Adaptation in a Complex World.” Abstracts will be accepted through December 1, 2022.

The 2023 CoatingsTech Conference offers industry experts — including coatings manufacturers, their suppliers, universities, and government representatives — a forum to share new research, and pursue continuing education and skills development. In addition to technology-focused sessions, the conference will also address regulatory and legislative developments impacting manufacturing, product innovation, and sustainability. Conference sessions will be categorized to provide attendees with an opportunity to focus on individual interests and specialization. Pre-conference short courses will provide targeted learning opportunities.
