Conference: 51st IUPAC World Polymer Congress (MACRO 2026)
Date: 28–31 July 2026
Place: Kuching, Malaysia

We are excited to announce that MDPI journals will be participating as exhibitors at the 51st IUPAC World Polymer Congress (MACRO 2026), which will take place in Kuching, Malaysia, from 28 to 31 July 2026.

MACRO 2026 is a prestigious international scientific event dedicated to polymer science and engineering. Hosted by the Institut Kimia Malaysia (IKM) under the auspices of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), the congress will bring together leading researchers, academicians, and industry experts from around the world to share the latest advancements, trends, and innovations in polymer research.

The congress offers a dynamic platform for interdisciplinary collaboration, fostering dialogue across fundamental and applied polymer science, sustainable materials, and emerging technologies. Through plenary lectures, symposia, and poster sessions, MACRO 2026 aims to inspire new ideas and partnerships that will shape the future of polymers for science, industry, and society.

The congress will feature a diverse range of sessions, including:

Advances in Polymer Synthesis;
Polymer Physics and Characterization;
Advances in Green Polymer Processing;
Advanced Functional Polymeric Materials and Membranes;
Biological, Biomedical, and Environmentally Friendly Polymers;
Polymeric Materials for Clean and Sustainable Energy;
Elastomers and Latexes: Durability and Performance;
Polymer Materials for Planetary Health: Education, Sustainability, Policy, and Societal Dimensions;
Polymers in Advanced Manufacturing and Smart Systems;
Data-Driven and Digital Approaches for Polymer Systems;
From Molecules to Materials: Bridging Pure and Applied Chemistry.
