About the institute
The Institute of Chemical Technology,
Mumbai (formerly UDCT) has grown to become
a premier (deemed) University dedicated to
education, training, research and industrial
collaboration in chemical engineering, chemical
technology, applied chemistry, applied physics,
pharmacy and biotechnology. ICT was
established on October 1, 1933, with the specific
intention of enhancing India’s scientific
manpower in chemical science and technology.
It was granted autonomy by the UGC in 1985,
and finally converted to a deemed-to-be
University by MHRD in 2008. In 2012, it was
awarded Elite Status and declared as a Centre of
Excellence by the Government of Maharashtra.
Currently, ICT has 1080 undergraduate, 319
postgraduate and 547 doctoral students.

The Department of Physics at ICT has
the distinction of being one of the earliest
Departments in the Institute. It was started as
Optics Section in 1935 which was subsequently
changed to Applied Physics Section and then to
Department of Physics. The Department
contributes to undergraduate and postgraduate
teaching in the Institute. In addition, the
Department has several research facilities, and
the faculty members are engaged in active
research in diverse areas of Physics. The
Department intends to start a new M. Sc.
(Physics) programme from the year 2013.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
India is witnessing rapid advances in the
design,
fabrication,
processing
and
manufacturing of polymeric materials. Scientists,
engineers and technologists are engaged in
exploring the diverse structural, mechanical and
thermal properties of these materials for a wide
spectrum of applications ranging from
commercial use to defence.
The objective of this workshop is to
deliberate on the latest trends with specific focus
on
processing
and
structure-property
relationships. It is also essential to bring about a
more synergetic and interactive approach to the
exchange of knowledge of the latest
developments among eminent persons working
in industry and academia. It is expected that the
deliberations and discussions among the two
groups will generate new and novel ideas in the
processing of polymeric materials and their
properties for specific applications.
Specific topics to be covered include –
•Polymer physics and chemistry
•Polymer blend rheology
•Polymer processing
•Structure-property relationship
•Nano-scale characterisation
•Polymer modeling and simulation
•Applications to textiles
•Applications to surface coating technology
