Dear International Elastomer Conference Attendees: On behalf of our great city, I would like to welcome you to Cleveland for the 2015 International Elastomer Conference at the Cleveland Convention Center being held October 12 – 15. Currently, there is an enormous amount of capital being invested in Cleveland – from a new Global Center for Health Innovation and the Cleveland Convention Center to a redeveloped lakefront area. Also, the region is home to four world-class healthcare institutions, 80+ biomedical companies and four higher education institutions dedicated to health and technology education, research, and workforce training. I am confident that Cleveland will provide a perfect meeting destination that not only meets, but exceeds your expectations in the quality, affordability and availability of accommodations, amenities, attractions and overall customer service. While in town, make sure to discover PlayhouseSquare, our elegantly-restored performing arts center that offers everything from quaint concerts to blockbuster Broadway shows. Or, head over to University Circle where you’ll find more arts and culture within a square mile than anywhere else in the country. Cleveland offers nationally-recognized culinary experiences and unique nightlife options in Downtown at East Fourth Street, the Historic Warehouse District and the Flats, as well as neighborhood hotspots in Tremont, Little Italy and Ohio City. Whether you want to rock with your idols at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum or root for your favorite sports teams at Progressive Field, “The Q” Arena or FirstEnergy Stadium, Cleveland’s got it all. Cleveland is an interesting and vibrant city filled with a wide range of opportunities and friendly people ready to welcome you. Again, welcome to Cleveland! If you have any questions or concerns during your stay, stop by our Visitors Center located at 334 Euclid Avenue, visit them online at www.thisiscleveland.com, call them at 800.321.1001 or connect with them on Twitter at @TheCLE.

Why Join? www.rubber.org

“The Rubber Division, which has been a career-long experience for me, began when my father, the President of H. M. Royal, Inc., told me that somebody should get out to Akron and get involved with the Division. The year was 1961, the first year I started to work, and I took a Rubber Technology course. Who would have ever thought after all the Rubber Group and National meetings, including the technical presentations, that I would be elected to be Chair of the Division. Why join the Division? The friends I have made and the knowledge gained sticks with me even in partial retirement and is just part of the story.”

Chemistry and Technology of Polymeric Molding of Rubber Materials Used in Medical Devices Wednesday, October 14, 2015 • 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, October 14, 2015 • 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Room 14, Exhibit Hall Level Room 13, Exhibit Hall Level This course is an introduction to one of the main processes in the The course begins with an overview of the FDA systems, industry, the forming and vulcanization of rubber products by use terminology and guidance documents for classifications of of molds. After an introduction to basic rubber technology, we devices, obtaining FDA approvals and pre-clinical testing including will explore the major variations of the molding process, which biocompatibility and biodurability testing. Included by example are compression, transfer and injection molding, as well as some in the foregoing and throughout the course is a broad range of minor variations within each of these types. Types and variations medical devices, which are manufactured wholly or substantially of molding equipment will be discussed and elements of mold from elastomeric and plastic polymeric materials. These design will be presented as well. Relating compound processing include medical latex items such as gloves, catheters, evaluations with likely performance in molding will be performed. condoms, urethane, silicone, polyamide and polyolefin catheters, The problems encountered in molding and in optimizing the thermoplastic elastomeric blood tubing, syringes and associated molding process for both quality and throughput will be explored. accessories, UHMW and polyurethane orthopedic implants, plastic bottles, packaging and closures, and others. Instructor: RJ Del Vecchio, CEO, Consultant

Key properties, chemical characteristics, and testing and analytical methods related to requisite performance characteristics of materials used in a range of products are discussed.
