The special series seminar will be held 16th December 2026 at Faculty of Science, Kasetsart University, Bangkok (onsite and online). Then, the 7th International Conference on Materials Research and Innovation (7th ICMARI) will be held 17th–18th December 2026 at Centara Grand at Central Plaza Ladprao, Bangkok, Thailand.
The conference will address both frontier and applied research on materials research and innovation in 3 sessions:
1. Rubber and Polymeric Materials
2. Bio- and circular-materials
3. Special Advanced Materials
The 7th ICMARI has been convened to focus on the global boiling-reduction policy as a part of “green and carbon neutrality” to help address the climate change crisis by contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
The 7th ICMARI is a great opportunity for all participants from both academia and industry to exchange knowledge and strengthen research collaboration, not only in the ASEAN countries but also all around the world. We hope that the participants will learn and interact with the plenary, keynote and invited speakers who will present on novel frontier knowledge and technology and new applications in the field of materials research and innovation.
We sincerely welcome both academic and industrial contributors to participate in this collaborative event where you may share your research, engage in discussions, and exchange ideas to develop appropriate solutions for our society and the world.
We have many types of awards for poster and oral presentations:
1. Materials research supported by ICMARI (2 awards) for students & (1 award) for everyone.
