Automobile Plastics

Attended the start-up meeting of Automotive Recycling Materials Workgroup by CATARC/CAMDS, which draws great attention from vehicle raw materials providers (where CATARC is China Automotive Technology and Research Center, head-quartered in Tian Jin with a branch in Beijing)

Designed questionnaire about CAMDS training, then investigated AICM members, and got more than 15 companies feedback so far. Almost of replied companies need the training or re-training.

Attended the CAMDS training (TF leader and AICM staff), evaluating its effect so as to communicate with CATARC to tail the specific training course meeting with AICM members interest.

Help CATARC to improve CAMDS polymers classification and related terminology phrases.

Witnessed on-site burning test in SCFRI, and exchanged the thoughts on PU, PS and other materials using as out-of-wall heat-insulation material.

Inviting officials from SCFRI to give a speech on workshop in July or August.
