About the Conference
The Physics and Chemistry Departments of Crescent University are proud to host an International Conference on "Smart Materials for Green Energy & Environmental Sustainability." This conference aims to bring together researchers, academicians, and industry professionals from around the world to explore the latest innovations in smart materials and their applications in promoting green energy and environmental sustainability.
Smart materials, which possess unique properties that respond to environmental stimuli, are revolutionizing multiple fields, including energy generation, storage, and environmental protection. Their ability to adapt and react to changing conditions makes them invaluable in the development of renewable energy systems, efficient energy storage solutions, and sustainable environmental technologies. From shape-memory alloys and piezoelectric materials to nanomaterials and graphene-based compounds, these advanced materials are key to addressing the pressing challenges posed by climate change, resource depletion, and environmental pollution.
The conference will provide a platform for the exchange of cutting-edge research and ideas on various themes, such as the development of energy-efficient materials for solar cells, batteries, and supercapacitors, as well as advancements in materials for carbon capture, water purification, and environmental remediation. Through keynote presentations, technical sessions, and poster exhibits, participants will have the opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions and collaborations that could shape the future of smart materials and their role in driving a more sustainable world.
In line with Crescent’s commitment to fostering innovation and research, this conference will also highlight the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration. It will bring together experts from diverse fields such as physics, chemistry, materials science, and environmental engineering to address the global need for sustainable energy solutions. We look forward to welcoming you to B.S.Abdur Rahman Crescent Institute of Science and Technology at Chennai for this exciting and impactful conference. Together, let's contribute to shaping the future of smart materials and their applications in building a sustainable world.
