Vacuum is strictly defined as a space void of matter. Nevertheless, for materials engineers and scientists, it also represents a region with a gaseous pressure much less than atmospheric pressure. Such a kind of media is employed since decades to perform dry (surface) modification and/or synthesis of materials avoiding any use of potentially harmless or polluting solvents. In addition to this already exciting advantage, these vacuum-based technologies often allow to perform chemical modification or synthesis that would not be possible by more conventional wet chemistry approaches.
The present workshop organized by Belvac, The Belgian Vacuum Society, in collaboration with associated companies aims at introducing these vacuum-based technologies to industrials and academics participating the Eurofinish fair. It will be structured around four topics: vacuum technologies, vacuum-related surface treatments, vacuum coatings and surface characterization. Each of this topic will be discussed during 1h15 modulus composed by introductive academic lectures by experts, industrial presentations and demonstrations on our booth XXX. All interested persons registered to the Eurofinish fair are more than welcome!
