BLACKSBURG, Va. — The joining of the Adhesion Society’s 25th Annual Meeting with the second World Congress on Adhesion and Related Phenomena (WCARP-II) is the result of a decision reached in 1994 by the Adhesion Society Inc., The Adhesion Society of Japan and EURADH (a consortium of British, French and German adhesion groups) to organize a global event in the field of adhesion science on a four-year-rotation basis. It was decided to merge the World Congresses with the regular meetings of the co-organizing societies to diminish the proliferation of conferences on adhesion.
The Adhesion Society will host the second World Congress on Adhesion and Related Phenomena in conjunction with its 25th Annual Meeting, February 10-14, 2002, at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Orlando, Fla.
