Ustroń, a spa town in the Silesian Beskid mountains, lies
inthe valley of the River Vistula that flows through the Silesian
Beskid. The spa is a characteristic foothills resort that
issurrounded by forested peaks of Czantoria Mała, Czantoria
Wielka and Równica.
Challenge and adventure, or twenty years of searching for
themodel structure of the PANI/CSA conducting polymer systems.
Jan Skov Pedersen, University of Aarhus, Denmark:
Registration at
Forest Park, situated near the hotel, is an unconventional zoo
that allows communing with nature and wildlife in natural
conditions. One of the biggest attractions of the park are
Falconry station and Owlery, where falconers present birds
of prey and owls during their flight.
Wojciech Łużny, AGH University of Science and Technology, Poland:
Molecular orientation in polymer thin films studied by resonant soft
X‐Ray reflectivity.
It is our great pleasure to invite you to attend
the triennial XIPS conference which provides a forum
for discussions related to the present state
ofmethods
and
achievements
in
structural
investigations ofpolymers.
The Belweder Hotel is located on the slope of Równica
in abeautiful area among mountains and an ocean of woods
in the heart of the Silesian Beskid. Surrounded by kilometers
ofwalking trails, close enough to city center and all Ustroń
attractions.
In‐situ GISAXS study of ultrafast structuring of polymeric materials
during spin coating.
Shinichi Sakurai, Kyoto Institute of Technology, Japan:
SAXS detection of deformation of glassy polystyrene microdomains
in SEBS films under uniaxial stretching.
Almut Stribeck, University of Hamburg, Germany:
SAXS studies of polyurethanes in strain tests and solidification
experiments. Evolution of morphologies close to disorder.
Winter in Ustroń is very enjoyable. There are ski lifts and ski runs
for downhill skiing, snowboarding. A large number of ski runs are
maintained with snow groomers and are floodlit after dark.
Andwhen you get tired of schussing down the slopes you can
take a torch‐lit sleigh ride and be transported off into a frosty
fairytale world to the sound of tinkling sleigh bells.
Scope
The focus is to gain a thorough understanding
structural properties of soft matter systems via
scattering (X‐ray, neutrons and light), X‐ray
imaging, infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance
spectroscopy techniques.
The conference will feature a wide range of topics,
including:
