A Ìýhighlight of the upcoming American Coatings Conference, to be held on April 9–11, 2018, will be a newly extended Poster Session. The session will be offered on the first day of the conference from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm, during the AC CONFERENCE Reception. Posters will be on display in the conference area, and poster contributors will be available to discuss their results with interested attendees.  A designated student section will cover current academic research.
