Malaysia Polymer International Conference 2017 (MPIC2017) is the 5 conference in the series organized by Polymer Research Center (PORCE), Faculty of Science and Technology, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM).
MPIC aims to internationalize polymer research in Malaysia through PORCE as a center of reference in polymer science and technology. MPIC serves as a platform that gathers researchers from various backgrounds of polymer research. MPIC also aims to promote, strengthen and expand the networking among researchers and research centers worldwide. The theme for this year conference is “Advanced Polymers for Sustainable Developments”. The main focus is on the research and development of polymers for novel applications. The direction is towards the advancement of science and technology of polymers for the bene�ts of mankind.
MPIC is a biyearly conference that gathers polymer researchers from all around the world. Some selected papers from these series were published in Malaysian Journal of Analytical Sciences, Sains Malaysiana and International Journal of Materials Engineering Innovation. Progress in Polymer Research, a refereed book publication is published by volumes and contains collection of selected papers that has undergone series of editorial process and published by PORCE.
Selected papers will be refereed for publication in Polymers and Polymer Composites (Smithers RAPRA SCOPUS indexed journal), Malaysian Journal of Analytical Science (SCOPUS indexed journal – charged upon acceptance for publication) and Journal of Polymer Science and Technology.
